Pretty much the same, just bigger. And if memory serves our trucks with the disk brakes have dual pistons to compress when changing the pads. But it has been a few years since I did my brakes, your results will vary.........LOL

luvmy,
You don't have to feed the truck rice and throw metric tools around to get it to cooperate!
If your 69' has front discs that's pretty much all that's required.
