Re: Rear disc brakes
I don't normally modify OE brake components to fit my applications. If I do use OE/factory components, I make sure to use the parts for that specific brake applicaiton. In the past, I've found it just as expensive (sometimes more expensive) to use OE parts from various places and vehicles than purchasing a disc brake kit from one of the many manufacturers, such as Master Power, SSBC, Willwood, etc. Here is what I'm using on the back of my '63 project. This might be a little extreme for some, but I've never had any problems with Wilwood or Mark Williams brake systems.
