Front Disc Brake Conversion - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

shlickster · 01-30-2008, 10:02 AM

I have a 1967 GMC longbox and would like to do a disc brake conversion on the front. I will leave the drums on the back. Also, I want to do a 2/4 drop on the truck. Do I have to spend piles of money on kits from vendors or is there a more inexpensive option to do these 2 things? Any feelings on the lowering? Do I need to use dropped spindles or is there an easier way that works well? For the brakes, can I use discs off an 80's truck?
I just need a good starting point I guess.
Thank you
Joel
