68 to 77 disc brake frond end swap
So my 68 gmc is all stock with the factory non power drum brake front end. After some searching I came across a decent deal for a complete 77 front end including the booster and steering. Mine came with the thicker rotors, minimum thickness reads 1.25 on the rotors.
I have not started disassembly yet, so not sure exactly what I need to complete this swap. I know itll need the steel brake lines from the master to the calipers as well as the rubber brake lines. Steering should bolt up? If anyone has any pointers or knows what else I need to complete the swap, I'd love to hear it. Ill try to document as best as possible for future swappers. |

Ya that's how I decided on the 77 era front end parts. Just wondering if anyone has anything else to add to aide in a smooth swap
