Re: putting 71-72 brakes on a 68?

Easiest thing by far is to get a '72 parts truck and just use the whole entire front suspension/brakes/steering setup. You will not have to replace the spindles unless you want drop spindles.

If you do this, the greatest benefit is that you do not have to remember which part is from which year.

Better yet, get a '73- truck to steal the setup from because replacement parts and drop spindles are cheaper. It's nice to have a '72 for spare parts to use on your '68 though.
