There is a Thread for that

About what was the cost of the rear disc brake conversion, and where did you locate the kit?

X2 with car-parts. ebay is also useful. I found my axle beam in St. Louis. Bushings and hubs - MOOG, brake discs, pads, rotors - PowerStop, brake lines, parking brake cables, hardware - Raybestos. Total cost of $850.00 plus time to install. Oh, and $200 for bushing tool J44570, which I now have and will let others use for the cost of shipping.

Pics of the Rears and a HOW-TO ! :wink:
I tried buying an SS rear axle but the junk yard never sent to pics before I drove the 200 miles to go buy it, so I moved on to other projects. :lol: The Supercharger is going in before I add rear disks now. But a good how to with part #'s included would be very cool if you did it without buying a SS rear axle. :wink: Fronts look good. :thumb: |
In a word no
SS caliper brackets non Brembo https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...87adc2bfa.jpeg Brembo calipers, you’ll need new brake hoses https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...c3349b43f.jpeg But don’t be shy, go big! 14.5 inches diameter rotors, tuck nicely into 18” SS wheels https://www.ebay.com/itm/ZZPerforman...3635746?_ul=CA These look awesome https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...d6c9b6ab8.jpeg |
