Which brakes

I have a 1972 chevy truck made from several trucks. It has 6 lug rims. How can I tell if the brakes are from a C-10 or a C-20 3/4 ton truck easily?
Thanks

Re: Which brakes

Take them with you to the auto part store so you can match them up.

Re: Which brakes

The 72 1/2 ton should have 5 hole wheels & front disc brakes unless it is a 4 wheel drive.
