60 Porterbuilt Brake questions.
 

Hello all,

I have some questions about Porter Built and brakes.

I have a 60 GMC(full porter built setup), I am ordering control arms (narrowed 1"). They ask for ball joint type.

My question is, if I go to the newest ball joint option (73-87). Will that change my track width when I go to order brakes? I just don't want to order the narrowed control arms and then gain that inch back because the track width is wider on the 73-87 hub/ brakes than the 60. I also want to avoid trying to find 1960 ball joints when I need to replace them.

60 stock track width is 63.14"
73 stock track width is 65.8"

Its late so hopefully my post isn't too much gibberish

Ace...im running pretty much the same setup PB A-arms 1inch forward and 1inch narrowed..I used the 71-72 BJ's with CPP's new modular spindle. No complaints here.
