Ok, I did a search and read for awhile so let me make sure I get this straight.

I just bought a 67 with drums on front with six lugs. To convert to discs (I am on a budget), I just look for someone selling or parting out a 71-72 model, correct? Just need the spindle and rotor? I will be buying new bearings, and ball joints for my local store.

Also, I can get some axels from one of the vendors with the 5 lug and buy some shoes and drums to fit?

I hope I got this right.

Thanks for any help.. I am still learning but reading alot.

Mike
