i have a 69 burb with drum brakes. going to drop it later on and i am wondering what is the best option i have to do this. i have ways to get parts from a newer c10 and get there disc brakes, but with the drop spindles i dont think this would be worth it.

if you have to pay for drop spindles,its best to just get the correct ones for your truck.then buy rotors and rebuilt calipers using the c10 parts for cores.drop spindles are the best way to drop it.lowering springs will put your a frames at bad angles.
