Brake Job

Post by t_doody »

I need to do the front brakes on my truck. It's 2 Wheel Drive and I am trying to find a list of parts that I will need for this but I am coming up empty handed. I know that I should get the hardware kit and replace all that, and I know that I need pads, but it's the drum part and anything else that I might need that I can't find. Any help out there?
