I think you also need a 71/72 steering shaft that the inner tie rod attaches to. I’ll get back to you on that when I check Tomrrow. Also get new inner and outer bearings and seals for 71/72. The brake hoses can get confusing. The 71/72 brakes lines are 3/16 on one side and 1/4 on the other and our trucks are 3/16 on both sides so you can either get two brake hoses for the 3/16 side or get an adapter for the 1/4 to 3/16 side. Are you swapping to 5 lug on the back as well? Only places like classic parts lmc brother etc will carry 6 lug rotors. Parts store only have 5 or 8 lug. You might as well get new calipers from auto zone if yours haven’t been restored. They are $22 with the core.
