Don't know if you've driven a boosted brake truck but my '71 with stock power brake parts off a donor turned it into a whole other vehicle. Like throwing out an anchor. I would be willing to bet as long as you kept from locking the brakes up, you could stop with many modern vehicles. Rotors are also very large and I've never experienced a hint of fade. Suspension on these trucks is an excellent design. No issues there but control arms allowing 8 degrees caster and 2x3 boxed tubing trailing arms with Deltin lined spherical bearings would be an improvement.
