ahamilto,,,if you do the math, replacing with the Hubler conversion is cheaper(ie. less) than using standard GMC parts. Now we have to compare apples to apples,not oranges. I'm not going to do the math here because I've done it before and you can search my old posts. When you have the knuckles out you really should have the lower control arms reinforced. If you don't think thats needed, search for Steve Fergusons tech sheet/photos. Going to need new bushings too, so count those also. When I went to sell my knucles and hubs, Dave L. knew that they had been bushed,(practically worthless,to tight)while he was screwing down the press!!(Dave won't rebuild knuckels that have been bushed,runs up the cost of a standard GMC rebuild) Just my 2 cents worth,,,,,,PL
