Probably obvious, but only on the front...

71 was the first year.

Re: 3/4 disks?

yes, yes, yes.....1 tons also!

my 72 burb 3/4 ton has disc on the front, and huge drums on the rear. stops pretty good for a 40 year old design!

Re: 3/4 disks?

Will a 73 C20 front suspension fit my 67 C20. Picked one up for free curious if it will fit. Thanks for any info.

Re: 3/4 disks?

there are no improvements with the 73 up front end....it is essentially the same. same goes for the brakes vs the 71-72. i liked my dad's 72 burb 1/2 ton, but my 3/4 ton 72 burb is soo cool with the heavy duty chassis, suspension, bigger brake system and 8 lug wheels.

Re: 3/4 disks?

a 73 frame won't fit under a 67 - 72 anyways (not 2 wheel drive) so just do the crossmember swap or blow it into a million parts and swap it all out that way.
