I don't remember what year your truck is, but brake 
parts for 55-59 Chevy/GMC trucks are available at 
most FLAPS.  It may take them a day (in a large city) 
or more to actually get them, but I would be willing 
to bet that the price would be lower.  The down side 
is trying to find a counter (wo)man who knows that the 
store has books (you know, those things with writing 
and pictures on paper) to look up the part numbers 
in when they are not listed in their computers.

The good thing about Kanter's is that they have 
brake (and engine overhaul) "kits" which typically 
have all the pieces necessary to do the job.  I 
helped a friend do a complete brake system overhaul 
on his '56 Pontiac with a Kanter's kit and all the 
necessary parts were in the kit.

Greetings all,
I am looking at purchasing a brake rebuild kit from Kanter. It appears to 
have everything I need for my truck. Has anyone had any experience with 
Kanter? Good or bad? Brakes are kinda important and I'd prefer to not 
purchase something inferior here if that's the case.
So, any comments on this supplier? Or, any other supplier that you would 
recommend?
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
