Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and hoping somebody can help me with a disc brake swap on my 65 C 30 Chevy truck. I pretty much have a handle on the rear disc swap, its just the front discs are what I'm needing help with. Can I use 73-87 one ton spindles and swap out the ball jointsx outer tie rod ends, or does anyone make a conversion for one tons? I've already updated the drive train to a vortec 350 and ZF 6 speed out of a vette. I've drop the truck 6/4 and C notched the frame. Now I want to get the brakes where they need to be. Any help would be highly appreciated.
