I will look into that system thanks for the post.

I have done my best to keep up with the drum brake system. I have to replace the brake shoes every 6 months. I get the drums turned if it needs it. When I got the truck the prior owner had rigged together the front and most of the Automatic adjusting parts were missing. I've tried rebuilding both front drums several times but they alway wind up locking up on the passenger side. I just figured disk brakes were the next step. The truck is really heavy when fully loaded with ice cream etc. plus my wife has a lead foot.
