Re: torsion bars and disc brakes
Welcome to the board.
I don't have them,... but ECE (Early Classic Enterprises) makes a disc brake spindle for the 60-62 torsion bar trucks. Part number: 911-6062S (stock height) 911-6062 (drop spindle)

Re: torsion bars and disc brakes

Re: torsion bars and disc brakes
Man the kits came along too late for my build I did my 62 gmc back in the early eighties and it was run what you could find , but the next one is going to have 6 bolt wheels for sure
