you've got 9" drums seeing that you've got a 4cyl and 2wd. It's a 7.5", but while you're in there working, if it were me, I'd find a JY axle and rip the 10" drums off it and upgrade! it's a bolt-on swap, you've just gotta pull the axle shafts to get the backing plate on and off. It's a popular upgrade on the older trucks like gen1/2's and is a helpful addition to braking power.

sounds good cause the truck dont stop that good .... driving my grandpa's 95 around today with abs was a world of difference. I snapped some pics of it which i plan to put up momentarily. A friend of my dads has more tools than i do and offered to help me with the brakes and leafs if i bring over a couple 30's of coors. I was over there last week helping lift my dads jeep and installing a chain controller for the clutch.
