Disc Brake Help!

I have a set of McGaughys drop spindles PN 6072 for the truck (65 with an 84front crossmember) and Im kinda stuck!

Are these spindles for 1.25" rotors only?

What years C10s came with the 1.25" rotors?

Thanks Again For the Help!

Re: Disc Brake Help!

the parts house will ask you what rear brakes you have... 2" rear brakes = 1" rotors, and the other... 2+" rear drum is the 1.25" rotor.. that simple

Re: Disc Brake Help!

73-80 had the 1.25" rotors.
Some 81-87 had the 1.25" rotors.
Some 81-87 had the "light duty" 1" rotors.

Your spindles will use 1.25" rotors.
Just tell the parts guys you have a 73, and you will be fine.
