I'm looking for info on replacing my 6 lug drum system with disc brakes. Also looking for recommended & affordable sources. Can I use parts from a junk yard or should I go new. Aren't there disc brake setups from other chevy vehicles that will work on my truck?

I'm also looking for a steering column (automatic floor shift).

Thanks?

I have a '65 chevy C/10 stepside. I took the whole set up from a '72 shortbed (from the A-arms out) and put it on my '65 for a disc/drum set up. Dual master cylinder etc. but still manual brakes. Works like a charm, but you will have to get it aligned for sure after because it will shim differently. Let me know how it goes!

Thanks for the info. I'll start looking for a complete setup and go from there. I'll let you know what I do.
