67-72 6-lug disk conversion

I have a 67 step side swb with power drums. I am wanting to convert to disks and get drop spindles for the front. What recommendations do you guys have on the cheapest and easiest way to convert? Also do I need to change my master cylinder and brake booster or can I just buy one of the 600$ kits ( http://www.classicperform.com/Store/...062SWBK5OE.htm ) and bolt it right up?

Re: 67-72 6-lug disk conversion

Can't give you an answer on what Classic Performance sells, however I will tell you that not all drop spindles are the same. The good ones push the pit outward so that you don't have the back side of the wheel hit your lower control arm. (We sell good ones) The kit in the picture is not all you need either. You will also need a Disk/Drum Master Cylinder, booster, proportioning valve & new upright brake lines to complete the conversion. You can do it with just an adjustable proportioning valve but I wouldn't recommend it. WES
