Interesting brake question
I was wondering how do I tell if my truck has dual disc brakes?
The book lists the F350 as having single or dual disc brakes (I think for the rear) Thanks

Get on your creeper, roll underneath the back and look for either drums or discs. Depending on your wheel package, you might be able to look through the holes in the rims and see either a disc or a drum.

I think they are drums, but I am not sure. They sure don't look like the brakes on the front, which is a disc for sure. I just want to know because of wheel lug nut torque, apparently its different for each one.

Or could they be referring to single or dual piston calipers?
Can't say that I've seen a single piston caliper on any that I've worked on but the parts store asks.
