Rear Brakes for 1/2 Tons.......
I am now re-assembling my 71' now that the frame and related parts are back from the powdercoaters. Man does it look good, like new. Anyway have any of you guys put disc on the rear of your trucks? If so then what kit did you use? I have seen the upgrade kit from Early Classic that uses larger drums and all but I am not a big fan of drum brakes. Let me know if any of you have used a rear disc kit and how well it all works? ha hope it works good or you wouldnt be able to tell me about it.
Thanks in advance, Jason |

GMC Pauls has this listed now.
I've seen posts on this topic. Some have disagreed because of getting the system balanced out right. Been thinking of changing mine from 6 to 5 lug and using the disc brakes.
