Easy.
-Get the outers from a 73-79 F-150/ 78-79 Bronco.
-Get a set of camber shims from Ingalls
-Get the needed replacement parts; ball joints, bearings, seals, pads, u-joints...
Bolt it all together without the shims. Have the alignment checked, then install the shims to correct the camber, then reset the toe.

You can also use 1/2 ton chevy dana 44 caliper brackets, spindles, and calipers, and a 77+ ford 1/2 ton hub & rotor if you want to keep your original steering knuckles.
