Re: 1966.. Brakes, suspension, lowering..need suggestions

You don't need to swap crossmember. The guys with torsion bars normally would. I regret ditching bars but I also went wayyyyy overboard with Porterbuilt. Get drop spindles from McGahee, bell tech or the like with new brakes and hardware. You spent how much on wheels and tires? But can't get the proper stuff to stop?
Everyone wants to shortcut the safty stuff. Stay away from CPP all in one MC you will not get the air out. Factory design flaw. I don't like the power brakes so I disconnected vacuum line. CPP brakes ok, I would suggest other.
