Bigger Brakes on 4x4

Does anyone know if there is a company out there that makes bigger brakes for a 1972 1/2 ton 4x4? I have looked everywhere and cant find anything on it. I checked all the board vendors, and none of them even list the stock 4x4 front disc rotors. I would be happy to just find one of them right now.

Thanks

there was a thread not too long ago about someone here getting some new bear brakes for their truck, but i haven't seen any updates on that thread. i would like to know how they turned out. you might check these guys out http://www.praisedynobrake.com/. i think both bear and praise dyno are very expensive though.......good luck!

you could always swap in a dana 60 front axle, instant 1 ton brakes.
