66 c10 Rear Disc Brake Help
Installing POL rear disc brake conversion.
This is passenger side Is this correct? How does the brake hose with hose clamp attach to rear axle housing? Is the caliper suppose to sit low like this or do i need to rotate upwards? Grr! |

Running inline tube lines too.
I have no idea how the rear lines run. |

Re: 66 c10 Rear Disc Brake Help
I think you have the caliper bracket on wrong side or ? Should be top rear area...

Re: 66 c10 Rear Disc Brake Help
On the couple disc conversions I have done, I welded tabs to the axle housing.

Re: 66 c10 Rear Disc Brake Help
Hey all, I'm fairly new to updating these trucks, so forgive me if I say something completely "green". My first resto type project.
Fixing up a 66 C10, and am looking at doing a disc conversion all the way around, but am curious if the newer model spindles and disc brake plates will mount up in place of the originals. |
