Re: 8 lug brake upgrade options?

Looking for something like this ...?

As 68TT described above ...I run a 8 lug 14 bolt Full Floating Corp Rearend, running 3.73 gears with a Posi unit sporting a Mag Tek HD Rear Cover and CCP Rear Track bar ... rear originally out of a 1986 3/4 ton w/ leafs

Add 76-78 Eldorado D52 rear calipers for the parking brake with a 1-1/4" thick front rotors from 3/4-ton K20 4 x 4 and a set of custom brackets I found online ...

Stops better than my 2001 burban
