Advice on Drop Disk Brake kits

[asbill71]

I need a disk brake kit for my 65 Suburban. I want drop spindles and to stay with 6 lug. Guess I need the conversion style drop spindles because I also want to use my 65 lower ball joints and tie rods. Can anyone recommend a kit that they have used?

thanks

with their drop spindles.

Totally love it. Works great. Also didn't have to swap from the original master cylinder at this point in time which kept things nice and simple. I did their 5 lug kit, but they have 6 lug as well.
Worth mentioning that they also sell factory height disc spindles if you don't want to go lower in the front or want to do it differently.

I'm doing http://www.summitracing.com/parts/clp-cp4s2 with http://www.summitracing.com/parts/clp-cp4r-6 . Brake parts I'm undecided on as I may upgrade calipers/hoses, but if I do stock 73-87 parts from my local shop I can have less than $500 wrapped into it total.

Those rotors are by far the cheapest 6 lug version I've found, and after much research and talking to ECE/CPP/McGaughy's, CPP was the only company that stated that part does not push the wheels outward when dropping the truck. Both ECE and McGaughy's said their spindles do, which for me means fender rubbing. I'm sure someone will chime in on that notion - there's plenty of stuff wrote on that and all of it conflicts. I'm taking CPP's word, and Summit is great for returns so no real risk other than time.

It looks like the summit racing kit looks like it's a mcgaughys kit and i have used a few of those and liked them alot.....I didn't see who's kit the early classics kit is. Does anyone know who's making that kit that is ?
