Two things.. When going from 9" to 10" brakes, can I keep the same master cylinder or do i need a bigger one for more volume? Also the front spindles, between the 9" and 10" brakes, are they the same? |

You can keep the same MC, although you might want to add an aftermarket adjustable proportioning valve to get the front/rear bias right again. The spindles are not the same, from all I've heard... Lou |

Sorry, spindles and wheel bearing sizes are not the same between the 9 and 10 inch drum brakes. DD |

I may as well leave the front 9" as is then and just change the back along the axle. Then when I figure out what I'm going to do with disc brakes I'll swap front spindles so I don't have to take apart the front end twice. Unless the 10" drum spindles are the same as the disc brake spindles. but somehow I doubt that I'd be that lucky either |

Yep, just wait and go to discs up front. They are the best setup. I don't know about spindles between 10" and discs, but I think they are different too. Lou |
