73 Spindles Drum vs Disc?

knute_gis said

On my 73 Scamp it has front drum brakes.

I want to change them to disc.

Are the spindles the same or will i have to get spindles from a factory disc car?

Thanks

The knuckles are different but the spindles are the same. That was the trick behind the Viper 11.75 that I used to make. The 11.75 rotor fits on the drum brake spindle and the mounting bracket bolted to the drum brake knuckle pattern. That kit worked pretty well back in the day.
