The complete pickup platform changed in '88, and is not interchangeable with earlier years. The only way you can use those parts on your '66 is to use your original upper control arm, a '63-'66 C20 lower control arm, and then install the '88 upper and lower balljoints, spindles, rotors, calipers, etc. This is the same as the 6 lug conversion described in this thread.

So you CAN use a '63 C-20 LCA....with an '88 BJ ?

It doesn't have to be a '67-'87 LCA ?

I have a rolling '63 C-20 Chassis that I am parting out.
