Entire Brake hardware kit?

[simplepeddler]

Any leads to an entire hardware kit?
pulled the tires of the passenger side of the latest buy and there is nothing there at all, just the rotor and drum......wierd.......guess the PO was going to rebuild them but lost the hardware........

Rotor AND drum?

I got a complete drum brake hardware kit from the local auto parts store for my 1972 GMC. Wasn't very expensive. My 72 only has drums in the rear.

yes ....disc on the front.....drum on back 3/4 ton.........
that makes sense.......guess it just rattled me that it was ALL gone

Yeah if it's drum brakes the parts store hardware kit and shoes should pretty much cover it. Unless wheel cylinders or park-brake parts are missing. Then it's junkyard time.

[Ratpick]

Oh ok, new slide pins and calipers should be available. But it might turn into a "wrong-part-exchange-hoedown"

I once had a customer bring in an old Maverick that wasn't stopping well. It had drum on one side up front and disc on the other, neither working properly. That rattled me a bit

You said 3/4 ton. What rear end? If it's an Eaton... parts might be a little scarce.

You've never heard of Passenger side Drum/Driver side Disc brakes?
It was all the rage in the 70's!
