Hello RPOZ11,

I'm loving the info you have posted here. I have this same rear end in my 67 Ramp truck. Per say by the numbers you posted, except mine has no tag with it.
I'm trying to decide which way to go on the rear E brakes. I have none of the parts for them for it. I'm guessing from your info finding them will be a job in it's self.
With that being said do you have the info for the disc brakes you used and do you know of any full kits with the E brakes as well. I know you posted about making up a E brake spring. Any and all info is appreciated on this. Thanks
