Most of the parts listings (new or old) make the differentiation between these
two model years when it comes to the front and rear drum brakes on these b-bodies.
Although both are obviously the same ol' Bendix-designed setups, the only
difference I can notice when looking in the FSM's is in the self-adjuster setups -
'68 uses the spring to hold the adjuster wheel from spinning, while the '69 has the
familiar hook and eye cable design.
Is that the only difference in the two years or are there more "improvements"?
I'm going to rebuild my '68 GTX's brakes stem to stern and I will use all USA made
parts and this is the only real question in all that for me.
