Found a complete drum to drum 9" from a 74 Ranchero for $75(non posi). Think it measures 54". Can it be used in my 79 BU? Do I just buy the upper control arm brackets from Currie and weld them on,new upper/lower control arms,relocate spring/shock mounts and bolt it in? I realize I will need different rims and brake lines but what else. Don't have a shop close by that has a jig to weld on the upper brackets but if I measure and take my time to get those right, is it a hard swap? Basically let me know what needs to be done and any tips on the install.

Thats hoew I did mine, squared it up side to side, made sure the lower arm bracket angles mathced. I put the brackets on the lowers to help square the rear. Check just about any circle track site and they can walk you thru it.Sorry about the spelling my new browser sucks won't allow me to make corrections.
