Re: 72 C10 brake problem, need help please

If it is possible to turn the rotors, have them machined to remove the pits, if that's what they are. If they are pits, you have a lot less friction surface than what a smooth rotor would have. If the rotors would then be too thin after turning, buy new ones.

And yes, if the rear shoes are on backwards, there will be less braking performance.
