Talking Power brakes
Just a quick update. finally got the power brakes installed on my 66. Used the parts from a 73 1/2 ton. it was basically a complete bolt in. what a huge difference it made.

Boy I can't wait until I can change from front drums to disc. Any thing to increase the stopping power is great improvement.
