After getting the engine running again, I tried to move it around in the driveway a bit. I quickly realized that only one wheel stopped the whole truck from rolling down my very steep driveway. At the time, I was a Junior in high school, so driving to and from school in traffic was something I did almost every day. We decided to do a disc brake swap on the front end. Went with the kit from Performance Online, and it went together really well. Only issue we had was that it took several months before it finally showed up. After the swap was complete, the truck had a brand new brake system from the master cylinder to the rear shoes. To this day, I haven't had any issues with the brakes.

I also painted the tailgate letters with some old gutter paint that was on a shelf in the basement. Looks decent from far away

(Sorry, I have no idea why the pictures are orientated weird)
