Re: shopping list for disc brake upgrade
I'm almost finished with my conversion now so I have a more complete list. I'll post it for future reference for anyone doing this for the first time.
(2) 71-72 Spindles (2) 71-72 Rotors (2) 71-72 Calipers (2) 71-72 Brake pads (2) 71-72 Outer tie rod ends (2) 67-70 Outer tie rod ends (used in inner position) (2) 69 chevelle brake hoses BH73242 (must be modified to fit bracket) (2) Conversion tie rod center links (or use 72 and squeeze one end down to fit smaller tie rod threads) (can possibly use 67-70 and open one end but will have to find a way to clamp it) I also added new power master cylinder and prop valve. This requires new brake lines to connect to the proportioning valve. If you want to use standard ¼” brake lines with standard end fittings, you need (1) Dorman 785-434 and (1) Dorman 490-536.1 brake line adapters for the proportioning valve. I borrowed a ball joint press at Oreilly's and bought a couple pickle forks and a brake line bender at Harbor Freight. I already had all other tools needed. |
