Re: calipers and brake hoses

Aftermarket as upgraded parts or aftermarket replacement parts? OEM rubber hose or braided steel hoses? I'm sure there is some kind of better caliper but not sure what all you will run into to get the installed. Like if you need brackets, different or modified spindle things like that.

I might be able to get some part numbers if I know what year/model/engine vin number or stock engine size it came with.

It was a ground up restoration, I went from HD rotors to 1" rotors. Im sure stock would work, but I can't find them. I even tried calling a custom company that would make them for me, theu can't help.

A..Z-

You should be able to get the 'aftermarket' calipers and hoses at the local chain Auto store. If you're looking to step up, check out Classic Performance Products. They have a front disc kit for the 62-87 trucks. But, I think that use 12" rotors.
