you need the 63-70 spindles, 71-87 -- rotors, calipers, bearing seal kit. 1- 2psi check valve and the custom fittings for your master and port valve to put the valve inbetween. And remove the stock 10psi check valve from the master.

The oem wheels just touch the rim and you can grind a piece off the caliper(the brake pad really) for them to work or just get new rims.
I don't understand the check valves on a stock location master cylinder?
Run a disc/drum or disc/disc prop valve (or an after market adjustable prop valve),... and the correct disc brake master cylinder,... and you are good to go.

It's not that big of a deal.

I got the stuff off a 73-87 for $50 from junk yard, another $300 or so on ball joints, tie rods, bearings, calipers and pads from autozone, and $160 for cpp six lug rotors.

Now I have all new parts, and bigger better parts.
