front disc brakes
« on: April 08, 2006 - 04:42:24 PM »
hey gys i am thinking about puttin front disc brakes on my car. I t has 4 wheel manual drum now and although i havent drove the car any i am sure that they cant be too good. Since I am a young buck I have alsways been driving cars with at least disc brakes in the front and would like to keep it that way . While everything is tore apart and being clenaed and repainted i figured now would be the best time to do it. Who is the best place to go thru for the $$ and quality. I have heard some bad stories about people buying kits they thought would bolt right up then having to cut, weld brackets and fab up certain pieces . I am looking for a direct bolt on kit  no torches or welders needed just wrenches etc. Thanks guys

I'm not sure about the after-market stuff, but you can put on Mopar disc brakes on from another car. I have mid-70 A-Body brakes on the front of my Challenger. The rubber drum brake line even fits the A-Body disc brake calipers.  :grinyes: I just thought I would throw this out there to you.
