Re: Decent Brakes on a 70 C10 for today
Like someone mentioned the D52 calipers are a good upgrade, but my first suspect would be the pads.
Cheap pads have a tendency to be grabby, but that is not always the case. They can also feel weak till they heat up.
Performance pads sometimes need heat to properly work. Depending on style of pad your kit came with.
A switch in pad style can reap big rewards for you if they match your driving style.
But I would check the pads/rotors for glazing, and pedal rod first. Since you could still have your break pedal rod in the manual position which makes power breaks feel weak. Since you need to push further in for the same effect.
