Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 23 Member | | Member Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 23 | I just got my 61 chev 3/4 ton back from the garage inspection, and am on the fence. Do I rebuild the front end with hard to find parts or float in something newer for power brakes/steering, etc? I'm not into restoring, just want something that works very well. If so, what years...I've read on here something will more or less bolt in, but I can't find it

They got drop spindles even for your yr. more popular than 59, I just don't trust drums all the way around, we'll be pulling Harley with ours. If you need some company's name e=mail me I'll send ya the info back.
