Are you happy with Blackbird's? Other than wheel stud issue.
It looks good.

oh yeah very happy, besides the studs it went right together with no probs at all and looks like it should work great. im waiting on some poly bushings for rear springs that been on backorder for 6 weeks before i can get it in. thanks for asking. id definitely recommend the kit as a must have for anyone with drum brakes.

His 1970 has 1/2" studs, the rotors are for a 71 and up 3/4 ton GM dana 44 and require 9/16" studs. If your looking for your 71 you'd be fine.
