'67 drum to '72 disc swap - advice?
I'm about to embark on a new project and would appreciate any advice from the old hands here. Experience is the best teacher, so I want to learn from those with it.
Here's what I have: '67 Chevy swb with drums on all four wheels to change to power disc. '72 Chevy lwb with power front disc as a donor truck. ECE drop spindles new '72 power disc brake master cylinder new front end rebuild kit for the '72 (procured before I had the '67) - ball joints, tie rod ends, etc. ECE front anti-sway bar with drop brackets. I plan on installing the rear end from the '72 later to get it to 5-lug all around. What will I need, besides what I have, to get before I starting? New front brake hoses will be one thing on the list. What else? I want to have the '67 down for as little time as possible. I can even take the complete cross-member assembly out from under the '72 and rebuild it, I suppose. That would mean that I'd need to pull the engine in the '67 to ease installation. Right? Again, any advice before I get started (and after) will be appreciated. I'll try to take pictures as I go if I can swipe the digi-cam from work. Thanks, Jeff
