Stupid question, is there a swap from another model/year truck for the front axle on a '53 3600 that would allow for disk brakes? Seems from the search I did its easy to get half ton kits, but the 3/4 ton is a bit more difficult. I'd like to keep it 3/4 ton, but I guess if the new axle was a 1/2 ton I wouldn't really care. I doubt I'll ever haul anything heavy enough in this to need the difference between the half and 3/4 ton. I would only do this if the swap was exact, I don't want an axle longer or shorter - I'll just keep the original if that's the case. Just thought I'd ask just in case, because I really think I'm just going to keep it as is and put the firewall mounted booster kit from CPP to make sure I have a little better brakes than the original.
