Dana 60 Brake Upgrades
Hey guys, I have lurked here for some time, and finally joined. Figured I should introduce myself! This is a great wealth of knowledge on this board with a nice group of folks! My truck is an 85 K2500, which started out stock when I bought it 16 years ago. Since then, I lifted it, lifted it again, I think lifted it again, got older, and lowered it a little. As it sits, the truck is at 4 inches with 33's. During the time I owned it, I swapped axles to a full float 14 bolt rear with disc brakes and a Dana 60 front. I also converted to hydroboost and a C3500HD master cylinder.
So here goes the question. Has anyone found an easy and effective way to upgrade the front brakes? Don't get me wrong, the brakes work well, I just keep looking for even better! I have checked online and found people doing some crazy stuff adapting later brakes and making brackets. That sounds great, but I am missing two things to make that happen - money and great fabrication skills! I have a C3500HD dual piston caliper I am going to try. Has anyone tried this before and am I wasting my time, or are there any other suggestions that might be better? Thanks, Nick |
