Heinz:

If going to 80 mm, additionally you'll need new hoses, etc.: hose LH =
77320,
RH 77421, hose bracket clip H1457, and banjo bolt 313940. All numbers =
are
AutoZone. Get hose end jam nut also plus =BC x 1" ss bolt and nut to =
secure
each hose bracket to upper A frame.

Heinz:

Although you didn't specify, but if you're looking for original type =
front
wheel parts, info from the GMCMI Parts Interchange Index are pads:
Performance Friction (PF) 0524, caliper LH: NAPA 42-2010, RH: NAPA =
42-2011,
rotor: GMC 701603. Brake rotor from mid 70s Toronado will work =
provided
three new holes are drilled in the face.

Info for the 80 mm size calipers (AutoZone numbers), pads (PF): 1543,
caliper LH 90185, RH 90184. These pads are the larger than the 0524 =
above
ones.

Yup, still stock in front... is now a good time to consider 80mm? =
Guess
I'll try some webbrowsing to see if there is info at Gene's or =
Patrick's
site.

thanks for the numbers.

Could someone be kind enough to send me or post some generic numbers =
for
pads (the 'good' kind) and also calipers and rotors and perhaps a =
source
(NAPA?) Hopefully I'll hit (it's only a saying) Portland in the AM and =
I'll
dig up a NAPA or similar either there or Salem
