Thonly way you could use those '91 8 lug parts is if it is the Square body style. The Suburbans, and Crewcabs, ans possibly a couple other models were still the Square body thru '91. If it is the '88 and up body style, the only thing you might be able to use would be the rear differential. I'm not sure on the width of the 8 lug rear differentials of those years. I know that the 5 lug differentials are too wide to use in the older trucks. One other thing that you could use from it if it is a newer style truck, is the brake booster, master and prop valve, with one of my booster brackets. That will bolt right up to your '64 GMC.

I have not done it, but I'm thinking that the C10 shafts and bushings would fit the C20 LCA's. But yeah if it were me I would upgrade to the '73-'87 control arms with the rubber bushings. I would also recommend upgrading to the larger LCA shaft U-bolts used in the '73-'87's.

Or, does it have to be '67-'86 in order to bolt to my 63' c10 X-Member ?
I think I would prefer to use newer style rubber bushing style arms anyway...keeping it 6-lug
