Re: Just how bad are the brakes of 67-70's c10?
I drove a`70 C/30 with an 11' utility bed and ladder racks.It had a TH400,which was no help for stopping,and power brakes.I kept the aluminum/vinyl siding materials in the bed,bins full of tools,generator,brake,and all my ladders,pump-jack poles,and aluminum walkboards on the 15' ladder racks.I ran my business out of it for four years and around 125,000 miles and the pretty N.O.S. grille,front bumper,and guards that I put on it were undamaged when I sold it.Go figure.I always wanted to put discs on the front,but never had a chance.
