C-Body Front Disc Conversion

Post by yabadaba »

Anybody got experience with front disc conversions on a c-body? My '66 Polara has power drums all around and I suspect at some point fairly soon I'm going to want to upgrade to something that'll make it stop better.

Looks like there are complete conversion kits that can be bought from a few places in the states, but I'm sure I've heard a few negatives about them.

Excellent - thanks! That C-Body Dry Dock link has a post in that basically lists everything you need. I'll see how I get on with the drums for a while, but suspect I'll soon be looking to start collecting the necessary parts together to do the swap.
