axle question

Does anyone know if in 1970 3/4 ton axle if they made floating and semi floating 14 bolt? I have a 1968 and I put axles from a 1970 3/4 ton and I'm wanting to put disc brakes on the rear, cause I'm having a prob. with the rear drums locking up even when I back off the brakes. I'm wondering if putting disc brakes on the rear would fix the prob. Any help would be much appreciated!

Re: axle question

Dunno bout the brakes, but only semi float axles in those days were the 1/2 ton stuff. All 8 lugs were full floaters, either Eatons or Dana 60s.

did you try beeding the brakes. Check for a stuck e-brake cable.
