rebuild front drums or start to disc..

[oldblue1968chevy]

are discs easier to work on...cause all them sprins in my drums are a pita

wat i think ima do is go disc 5 lug in my front and stay 6 lug in rear for awhile..

so outside of balljoints and tierod stuff the 71-72 spindle stuff will work?

what should i replace, can i use the old brake lines,bearings, pads?

and can somebody tell me what tie rods and balljoints i'll need

im doing one on mine currently. i got my parts off of a suburban, dont get suburban parts!!!! but i would get new pads, calipers, bearings, balljoints and any other thing that might possibly be worn out. i got my brake lines from this place called "right stuff" i didnt really like them, they were a real pain to get in, i think they could fit a little better. the upper and lower ball joints (for a truck) fit right in. you will need the ball joints and tie rods for a 71 or 72, whatever your parts truck is.

Good Luck!!!

Why wouldnt you just go ahead and swap the rears too. You are talking an extra couple of hours and you are good yo go
