Wanting to put disc brakes on 67c20

[Generation67]

Have been reading a lot on this site and finally registered. My question is, I looking at putting disc brakes on my 67c20. And I have found a cheap donor truck. 86k10. Will the front crossmember and the a arms and disc work on my 67. I'm willing to change to 5lugs
Any help would be great .

The 86 K10 is gonna be a 4X4 or else it will be a C10. Now if it is a C10 then yes the crossmember will work and there are thousands of those trucks riding on the later brakes like your talking of doing.

Thanks for the info. It took me awhile to find my post I wrote on here. You would think I would have a mail box with a reply. As for the 86 donor. It is a 4wd. So that is out! I will look for a c10 donor.

You say you have a 67C20 and you keep talking about k10 and c10 trucks. You want c20 or c30 Single rear wheel.

Do yourself a favor and take all of the forward brake lines including combination valve on the forward crossmember, under the radiator. There is a brake line coupler in the frame rail under the passenger side floor board. Use everything from that coupler forward for a very clean installation.

I'm doing mine now. Be prepared for the extras you don't expect.

I do have a 67c20. And the donor truck i was going to get was a k10. Wasn't for sure if I could use that front crossmember. I'm going to be looking at the 73-87 c10's for donor for brake upgrade

And again, C10 or C20?

[ranger danger]

C or K 10 is 5 or 6 lug. C or K 20/30 is 8 lug.

Yes my 67c20 is 8 lugs. I looked lmc truck and they don't sale disc brakes for my truck. So I'm willing to go down to 1/2 ton suspension to get my disc brake set up.
