Self-Adjusting drum brakes?

Not enough stopping power? My truck stops great! Especially considering all the extra weight that it's got for a half ton.

If I'm not mistaken your truck has different front calipers than mine, my truck has the old style calipers that mount with the 2 wedges, there are no bolts or greased sliders to allow the caliper to truely float. I also think the master cylinder may be slightly larger and provide more mechanical advantage. In general the older trucks had marginal brakes at best.

Ohh okay I didn't know that. Very interesting...

Would it be easy to swap your system for a 9th gen system like mine?
