Brake Upgrades/lockout hub
couple of questions.
1. For those that have upgraded brakes. Is it better to go with Hydro brakes or put a 1ton power brake booster in place of the half ton. 2. I replaced upper and lower ball joints on my truck. I had to take the hub apart. Know the hub will not come out of lock. So, I had an extra hub from my old 72 1/2 4x4. The hubs are no where near the same. So, question is how do I get the hub unlocked and why do you think the hubs are different. |

Re: Brake Upgrades/lockout hub
I have a 72 blazer with a dana 44 up front and the truck was a 72 1/24x4 with a dana 44. I thought they would be the same, but when I ordered inner and outer tie rods I had to get one that went on 1 ton truck in order to make it fit. So, I guess they may be different, but I have been messing with these trucks for awhile and really have never encountered this kind of problem before thanks for the advice

There was a first and second design when I got my axle u joints, had to get the number off of the axle tube.
