Cheap Option for Disc Brake & Power Steering Conversion on C10 Truck

In today's video I talk about how I converted my 1964 C10 to have power steering and disc brakes, all without having to spend a ton of money on new parts.

[@Roadglide911]

I used an 86 front end. Had to drill one hole and elongate another. All the frontend parts dropped right into place. (67 C10)

Come on back and make some more videos! This is good stuff man.

[@jamielunsford1]

Just bought a 66 and was planning on doing a complete front end swap with a squarebody. I'm so glad I ran into your video! I'm looking at doing exactly what you did. Thanks for the tip!!!

[@corydriver7634]

Good information, enjoyed the video.

[@huskydevil333]

Thanks for the info and nice truck. I have '81 Suburban suspension and rear axel under my '61 so this will help when tackle the brakes.

Nice truck good video

[@elliottlandco2776]

Nice work

[@richo2895]

Good information.

[@jamesmcclellan4297]

Thanks for the info. Guess it switches it to a 5 bolt pattern mines a 70 with 6 bolt. I'm from Amarillo I think you must be close.

CPP and other companies now make adjusting sleeves to where you can keep your original center link and not have to worry about drawing for the idler bracket Are use the proportioning valve and lines from a square body… There was a lot less guesswork and it actually all went right in using all original parts for a squarebody Not saying what’s better or worse from what you did just a lot easier with just the technology of stuff that’s come out now

[@EdwardGatica-wi5ng]

Thanks for the info on this video I have a 65 c10 and wanted to upgrade to disc brakes in the front. I saw another video on swapping out the complete front suspension but that’s a lot more work. The way you did it using the original front and rear A arms and using everything else from the Surburban is a time and money saver !. I want to upgrade the rear end with the 71-72 c10 setup but will everything line up and work properly including the driveshaft? Let me know or if anybody else has done this rear end conversion can help me out

[@ozcorr909]

Great video very informative and to the point thank you.is the bottom A arm or from the suburban? Thanks again

[@dereksmithabroad]

I’m glad to find your video. I’ve got a 71 I’m starting to work on with my daughter. This conversion is somethingI wanted to do for her. I’m in DFW. Do you go to any C-10 events?

[@jeffreyparsons2221]

I just found you channel and like it always fun watching with your kind of content. I thought you might like to check it this other channel I follow (Ordinary Guy Garage) almost like you guys are like brothers. I did tell him he should check out your channel.

[@rayburton4263]

I have a 1970 c10 and I want disc brakes but keep 6 lugs, any Ideas?

[@grumpy1962R]

Where did you get the double master cylinder and what information did you have to provide when you ordered it?

[@jamielunsford1]

Can a guy do what you did and leave the stock steering box? I'm not looking to swap to power steering just yet, and when I do I plan on using an electric setup.

[@coreyharris536]

What can I use for my 64 impala

[@paulg3676]

How different would the install be for a 67 GMC C25?

[@rlosu.s.a487]

I'm doing a conversion on a 65 c10 I got all the parts from a 82 c20 everything is going good I just want to use a different bracket for the pump do you know the part number for the one you used or where did you but? Thank you.

[@CreativeM35]

Does it have working parking brake?

[@robertlopez1369]

Would a 72 Cheyenne work?

[@leewilliams8917]

Anyone know what other year suburbans will work?

[@whodini225]

Hey man, I’m looking for a nice square body Chevy. I am currently living in Texas and I want to know if you’re selling any of yours or know anyone who is selling for around $8000 tops. I know there’s some around, I’d just like your wise input. Thanks man!

[@domingogonzalez9628]
