well i have a 76 f100 4x4 dana 60front and 70rear with 5.13 gears airlockers and 19'' of lift and it was a real dog to stop with 44s (it had disc up front and drums on the rear) i put disc on the rear and hydro-boost on instead of the vac-booster and it stops better than most stock trucks do of that age.
