How do I figure out which vendors sell brake kits?
 
I'm looking for a Power Disc brake conversion for a 1969 c10 swb. It currently has 6 lugs. I know the 5 lugs give you more wheel options but what would I do till I could change the back over to 5 lug? I wanna make the truck safer and more enjoyable to drive not sit in the yard till i save enough to do the back. Someone suggested buying a kit from a site sponsor vendor so which vendors sell them?

You can get kits from many places, Porterbuilt can put one together, (ECE) Early Classics Enterprises, POL (Performance online), Scotts Hot rods, etc etc....

There are a lot of 6 lug wheel options now but the most popular choices still seem to be 5 lug...plus many of the modern 6 lug wheels won't fit without modification and/or have the wrong offset...

You can get conversion axles for the rear or buy a whole rear end that's 5 lug...
