The tapered axle 8.75 rears can easily be converted to slip on drum
brakes.  I wrote this wiki article and also posted it on my site. It
describes in detail how to make the conversion.  Not only does it make
brake work easier its also cheaper since you can use the '65 and up
drums. Here's the link www.hotrodsandhemis.com/PolaraRearBrakes/TaperedAxleBrakes.html
