Re: How many have restored trucks and left their front drum brakes?

My 70 C20 has all the original stuff. Drums on the front and all. I bought the rig for hauling wood. I have come off the mountain with a cord of semi wet oak (about 4000lbs) with out issue.

Drums brakes where made to stop a lot of weight, just look at a Semi. Yeah if you drag your foot on them they will fade a bit. I did not have any problems.
