Re: 1970 Blazer disk brake conversion

Do you have an open or closed knuckle? Can you see the axle u-joint?

If it's open, I would go to a junkyard and get the knuckles out from a 71-91 (or later even?) 1/2 ton chevy to start. It will give you the spindle, outer axle shaft (if it's different), caliper brackets, and caliper cores.

Then get a new rotor and either rebuild or replace the calipers, install new pads, new bearings.

Probably something I'm leaving out but that ought to get you close.
