Re: What happened to it??

I just did the conversion on mine a few weeks ago. I used the six lug conversion kit from Classic Performance Parts on my 65 C10.

The kit comes with everything you need, its great and saves a lot of the trouble of buying junkyard parts that turn out to need a rebuild anyway. I got the power brake booster and everything. The tech support people are knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend this kit.

I did 4 wheel disc brakes. The rear brakes add a lot of complication to it because you have to redo the E brake and pull out the axles. Its also a pain to get the old studs out of the axles. The other time consuming parts are drilling holes for the new Master Cylinder, bending new brake lines and adjusting the pedal free play.

The kit uses front brakes from a 78-84 Monte Carlo/Chevelle, etc. The rear brakes are from a 80-85 Cadillac Seville.
