I would like to order one of the disk brake sets, but I have a 3/4 pickup and was wondering if I would be running into any problems with the spindles.
Thanks.

Thanks for the info. But I guess I was wanting a little different information about 3/4 ton spindles.
I guess I should ask the question in a different way .
Will I have any problems when ordering a disk brake kit for my 3/4 ton spindles?
Or, am I going to have to go to a 1/2 ton set up up front?
Thanks. | | |
