69 c30 1 ton brakes
 
My wrecker has front drum, i was searching disc to drum, but I don't see a 3/4 or 1 ton option. Any recommodations for a reasonable cost effective change over? I have front drums on my 70 c60 oil truck back in the day and I didn't like them at all.
Thanks
Glen

You're going to be mad to hear this, but there's a guy in the high desert near here that has a complete one ton disc setup he offered to me. It includes A-arms and EVERYTHING needed to convert my 1969 C30 motorhome chassis like you want to do to yours. I think he was asking $500.

Mine still stops OK, so I haven't converted.

Any one ton front end up to 92 will bolt into your 69. I used a 89 front end under my 67. I had to enlarge some of the holes because the later trucks used bigger bolts
