If 13” is a choice I’d bet you or the parts guy is looking at a full floater. I could be wrong but I don’t believe 13” was available on the semi floater.

FYI both of my K20 4x4's were 13" and not floaters. I converted one to floater for safety reasons and wider shoe.

FWIW: This chart will decipher what your brake system is by the RPO code on your build decal.

Just looked at my 1986 3/4 ton build sheet. It has the C6P option, but no listing for brakes. I'm going to assume that the C6P package included the HD brake package.
