Heavy Duty Drum Brakes 1970 C10

[joecaruso]

Hello all, I recently ordered a disk brake conversion kit for my 70 C10 which uses the stock spindles and drum brake hubs. Upon breaking things down I found that the stock hubs were too large for the rotors in the kit. Thats when I remembered the spid on my truck lists HD brake equipped. Needless to say I sent the kit back and I am going to have to go with one that includes new spindles and hubs, but I was curious if anyone had more info on the HD drum drake option for half ton trucks. I have tried searching but have not found much info. I bought my truck from the original owner who bought it as a boat hauler so the added braking power makes sense. I appreciate any info. Thanks
