Re: 74 crossmember in a 69 c-10

When I did my swap, I replaced everything. I bought a complete front end from a wrecker. They cut the frame just behind the cross member and loaded it in my truck. Brought it home, blew it apart, blasted and powder-coated everything, installed 2" drop spindles and bolted it in. As someone mentioned earlier, replacement parts are cheap for the 73-87 trucks and the swap is very straightforward.
