Question about brakes on a 70 GMC blazer
Would the above have drums or disks? It should be a open knuckle axle, correct?

Re: Question about brakes on a 70 GMC blazer
I believe 69 would have been closed knuckle and drum brakes.

70 should be open knuckle & drums.

Re: Question about brakes on a 70 GMC blazer
Blazers never came with closed knuckle front axles. The '69s and '70s came with an open knuckle drum brake setup.
