Are those rotors coated with something?

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
No, just the natural finish. I really should paint the hats, but you can look at my truck and see I'm not much for painting.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Very nice truck!
I may have missed it in your thread but I am going to ask anyways. Where did you get your rear end housing? I have an original 67 under my truck and the width is going to require me to run spacers with just about any wheel I look at, unless I buy a custom wheel. It needs to be rebuilt anyways and if I could find a good housing I could buy a cheaper wheel that I like and afford to fix the rear end. Therefore I have been trying to find a wider rear end. Thanks! |

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Shawn, I used the 1967-70 Rear Disc Brake Kit 5-lug w/ E-brake, kit (6772RWBK-5E) from CPP. Probably 75% complete but I am taking the night off, I'll finish up tomorrow.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
I think I'm going to do the proportioning valve (pv) mod to my existing pv. Read about on the CPP site.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
The jury is still out on my proportioning valve mod, the brakes seem spongy to me. I am done for today, will bleed them some more in the morning and see if I will need to order a disc/disc pv.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
I am happy with the wheel placement and the disc brakes look much better than the big ugly drum!

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
It's funny you say that, I am thinking about doing a thread about all of the things I believe I've done wrong on this build. Now I need some PB parts to center the rear wheels too, I guess I'm going to have to contact Nate directly.
Thanks, I am trying my best to build a solid driver. You never know, when Rob gets his LS swap done we may just swing down your way for a visit!
