15" mags with 2-1/2" drop spindles?

FWIW, I can't imagine driving a truck with 4 wheel drums anymore. I've had disc brakes on my 68 since 1 year after I bought it(20 year ago). I drove a friend's 67 a few weeks ago and was appalled at how bad the braking was with the stock drum brakes!!

My bad, I went straight to assuming you had a 73-87 so I retract my statement. I agree on the brakes, four wheel drum is not the way to be!
