Hi

For my Dart 1968 I've ordered wrong SSB-A153-1 from 10` drums to disk brakes conversion kit.

Now I see that I have 9` drums spindles and:

1. Should I look for 10` spindles to be ok with SSB-A153-1?
2. If yes - can anyone share where to get it? Checked all placed I know but with no results
3. Any other options?

Thanks in advance!!

#1 is a fine option. I've seen kit, pretty sure Classic Industries has kit, but you can probably find a kit much cheaper.
#3 wilwood makes a kit that I think world work. (I'm planning to use the wilwood kit on my 65. I've even talked to wilwood to make sure it'll fit.) Then, a few months ago, someone on this forum did that kit and took lots of pictures.
 
I was at ssb a few weeks ago. They informed me they don’t make a 9” kit. I would imagine a pair of 10” spindles would be an easy grab, and probably less hassle than returning and getting a new kit. Getting a kit for my friends 71 valiant. I know my 67 has 10” drums and I’m just going to swap the spindles, if need be, to run the kit.

Looks like you're talking about this 9" kit from wilwood https://www.wilwood.com/BrakeKits/BrakeKitsProdFront?itemno=140-11022-DR&year=1968&make=Dodge&model=Dart&option=9"+Inch+Drum+Brake+Spindle

but I already have a kit from SSBC and to send it back (from Russia) will be quite difficult :) So the only option I see - to get 10" spindles but I can't find it for my car :(

Ok, so I guess what I was saying is, post an ad on here in the parts wanted section. I’m quite sure you may get results that way. I won’t know for a few days if I will have an extra pair
 
I have a set of 10" spindles from a 68 Barracuda, but I will be away from home for weekend.
I can get back with you Sunday or Monday with more details & pics.
 
I did the same swap and found 10” spindles for sale on this site. They are out there.

SSBC make a great setup too. You won’t be disappointed
