Re: Drum to Disc brake swap
There are some very reasonably priced disk brake kits that have all the pets you need. I think I found a 6 lug front disk conversion kit for about 500 bucks or so

BUT,... the spindles will not bolt on to your 1970 truck suspension without changing the balljoints and outer tie rods. An easier solution would be to use aftermarket 6-lug rotors on 63-70 conversion spindles. These spindles WILL bolt directly onto your 1970 truck suspension.
