Hey folks. I purchased the C25 in my avatar last September. For more pics click here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...289510&page=47 scroll down
Since then, I did a FULL brake job including new lines on all corners, Tune-up, cleaned up the carb and engine, and replaced the 2 core rad with a 4 core that I scored off Amazon.com for $201 shipped to the house (I'm still waiting for the cops to arrest me for stealing it), replaced all of the hoses thermostat and water outlet. Anyway my biggest delimma is the rear. It has 4.56 gears in the original Dana 60 non posi. I am not thrilled about drums in the front. I ultimately want to put disc brakes in the front and I would like to keep the stock stance of the truck. As you can surmise the wheels are 8 lug. I hope I painted a a clear picture for you.
Now here is my question to all of you guys who have done what I'm looking to do: Do I change everything over to 6 lug (get a disc brake conversion kit for the front, find a rear for the back and if so what would I take it out of? OR Is there an 8 lug disc brake conversion(that I haven't seen in a cataloge yet) and change the carrier and gear set in the rear end housing currently on the truck? OR I am a moron with those 2 suggestions and you've got a much easier solution.
Help me out ohh wise ones!! Thanks
