86 K30 dump..rear wheel cylinders

Just got my 86 k30 dump 6 months ago only drive it a couple times a month. I noticed that the passenger side rear brake line is blocked off, so i decided its time for a new wheel cylinder,shoes etc.

The 14-bolt rear end was easy to pull the shaft out besides of the drum weighing 6 billion pounds all in all an easy job except for running a new brake line where there's only like 2 inches of room between the leaf springs and the wheel cylinder that's ridiculous!!

Anticipating my new engine swap got a donor engine from an 86 K20 Scottsdale pleasantly surprised that they had flat top pistons in it which came as quite a surprise to me considering my dished. All the luck to fellow square body mechanics

Lucky my '87 calipers were $23 ea. Might be the fact it is equipped with HD brakes. ''Twas an expensive brake overhaul I did two year ago.

I believe the spindles are different. The rotors are 1.25". Reckon only thing that's the same is the pads. I had a helluva time finding the inner bearing, cross referenced to a 70s vega.
