    I took the spindles ,calipers and rotors off of a mid 70s half ton.....bolt right up,....been a long time ago, but you may have to go to later tie rod ends, I think the tapered portion that goes in the spindle is longer....

    The king pins are the same from 66 up through 74 so that should give you an idea on what years might work and be pretty much a bolt on deal. An early 70's F250 shouldn't be hard to find with the front brake pieces and spindles on it.
