Re: Budget disc brake conversion

One other issue with a 73-up crossmember swap is that the engine mounts are different. This isn't necessarily bad if you want the later type mounts, but it's just something else to keep in mind.

When I swapped 73-up control arms and shafts to get the rubber bushings I had to enlarge the holes for the U-bolts. This was on a 1/2 ton, so I don't know if it is necessary on the 3/4 ton too.
