Re: 1969 C10 Project “Nosejob”
LOL, I just re-read your post 1...
If that 5 lug rear is as greasy as it sounds, it's likely a 71 or 72 rear end. Not knowing your Chevy pickup knowledge...The 71/72 rears are wider than your 68 (69?) is.. There's a boat load of other 5 lug swap facts. Let us know if you need any more... I have 67 and 68 C-10's I plan to use all factory parts to convert mine to disc, 5 lug... |

Im really considering just buying the 6 lug front disk kit to save myself some hassle for the time being and not go down the rabbit hole of trying to piece the rest of what I have together then having to buy new wheels on top of it. Down the road most likely but right now Im not sure I want to swing it. Curious if i can use my the brake master i have now though if i was to just install the 6 lug disk fronts for the this year.

Re: 1969 C10 Project “Nosejob”
I will make a list, put it here, for you. Maybe others will chime in. THere's one guy here, that knows, a lot (not me).
In the area of converting to 6 lug disc. You need to make sure that what ever wheel you have will work with the disc calipers. many drum brake wheels will not work... Posting a picture of the inside of the wheel here, will help. Disc brakes require a specific master cylinder. I've seen some folks use a drum M/Cyl, but I would not for safety's sake!!!
