Front brakes for 60-66 C10 truck

[rkelsch]

I have been researching the problem with 6 lug configuration. I don't want to spend $1000. on that upgrade. I think there might be a solution with machining a new hub and keeping the same offsets as the rotars with hubs originally came on the older disc brakes on a older truck 5 lug pattern. I got my spindles and calipers off an 1974 GMC truck. Ball joints are the same the only thing I saw different was the inner tie rod ends. You will need to get master brake cylinder and proporsional valve. The new hub would use the rotor off the newer 2wd trucks or off the 4 wheel drive trucks. There the cost would be very minimal. It would be drilled with the 7/16 studs so it matches your back studs. This is a true junkyard retrofit that everybody might be looking for. Do you think there would be a market for this upgrade. Please give me some feed back on your thoughts of this.
