It's a closed knuckle drum brake dana 44 like my 68 had. You can bolt in any dana 44 or corp 10 bolt from any 1/2 or 3/4 ton chevy...

Then you open up a can of worms with disc brake conversion (prop valve, MC etc..) to include power steering swap but it would be worth it. Find a newer 71 and up chevy and take all the parts needed...

Or if it works fine then run what you got too...
