I did this conversion on my 67 with no issues. I got my machine shop to do what I asked and the install went smoothly. That was about 4/5 years ago and I drive the car daily. If I was going to do another one I would by the later model big ball joint stuff though.

I misposted this in brakes but I meant to post it in suspension.

Below are photos of my Moog offset upper a arm bushings. The instructions say to use the enclosed washers with the install but I see two things. 1. The flanges on the washers are not slip fit so I assume they press in as shown. 2. Now the eccentric adjustment bolt and the front suspension will...

I converted my car to disc/drums. Bought a stock disc drum MC and a factory proportioning valve from somewhere-probably from someone here. I mounted the proportioning valve in the factory distribution block location after installing a rebuild kit in it. I just built new lines as needed to make...

I used the muscle car research kit on mine. Great instructions and a good outcome.

Mine worked in my Barracuda with the 7 1/4 when I bought it. I changed it to an 8 1/4 and hooked everything back up, adjusted it at the splitter and the new works fine. Actually used it up on the lift when tuning my engine in park.

A couple things, I did the drum/disc conversion to my car and upon completion I had a small drip from the valve. Unsure whether it is one of the five lines that attach to the valve or the valve itself I opted to remove the valve and rebuild it. The valve was built in December of 1971 and my...

I bought a kit for mine from muscle car research. I downloaded and printed the detailed rebuild instructions, should be doing it this weekend. Have to reinstall it before installing new exhaust system.

I did this conversion on my 67 Notch. I am using 15" X 6" X 4 1/2" stock rally wheels on my car on all 4 corners. I had a good machinist to help with the rotor work and put a factory stock sway bar to top it off.

back pot = front brakes

The two on the right are for my car. The left of the two is per NAPA a 67 BC disc/drum MC. The far right part # translates to 71 mopar disc drum. I am thinking the far right one but it means another paint/clear job to get the match I want. Interesting though-My wife is having a field day with...

Far left, original from car, 1st to right, unidentified-just grabbed off shelf and prepped it. 2nd to right, New NAPA 67 disc drum prepped & painted. 3rd to right, new treasure discovered today, NAPA 71 mopar disc/drum fresh out of box. (probably purchased 5 or 6 years ago) Wondering if I...

Well today I dug out all my archived material to put my front suspension together and found a NAPA master cylinder I forgot I even had. This is after painting the wrong one and buying a new 67 disc/drum (NAPA) and detailing and painting that one. (seems kind of puny but correct for the car I...

Well its going to be a GOOD day! I made the changes Redfish suggested and problem solved. Once again proving that FABO makes it possible for us to build A-body Mopars much easier than without FABO. Thanks All!:cheers:

I think Redfish nailed it. Thanks to all, I know what to do now. On both sides I placed the upper cable attachement over the large post. I need to re-do both sides removing the upper cable eye, install the Tee retainer over large post, install cable eye onto small post and re-attach return...

Here you go! Had all existing hardware that come out of original brakes and new rebuild kits from Rock Auto as well. Photos are of problem passenger side.

OK, I installed the brakes on my 76 8 1/4 yesterday and did the drivers side first. Came out perfect and seems to be just like the book. Did the passenger side and the auto adjuster seems to centerline too high to engage the adjusting star. Messed with it for a couple hours and gave up. Double...

Thanks All! I thought i might take the block off the 7 1/4 and try to use it but i need the new soft hose anyway so now i know what to do. Appreciate the input all! O:)

Getting my 74 A-body 8 1/4 ready to go into the car and i pulled the rear distribution block that attaches to the axle tube. I took the hard lines off the thing no problem but when I tried to remove the soft line (hose) it would not break loose from the block. Anyone know if it is integral with...

I am doing the mustang LBP disc mod to my setup. Going to mock it up tonight to see if my machinest got it right, If it looks good, I will paint the calipers body color. I have the 67 manual but the section on KH is not real clear. Thanks, Rat

Thanks Joe, wont let me in. Went to homepage but it is huge. Thanks for offering. DR

I am putting my 4 piston KH calipers together and have to replace all the hard lines. I have the ones I took off but cannot figure how to bend new ones & plumb them. For each side there is a plain tube and a wrapped tube. Any help much appreciated. I have the book but it is not real clear...

I am taking my Mustang rotors to the machine shop today for the required work for use on my KH disc conversion. I re-read my summary and the entire 40+ pages of Longgone's thread and the thought occured to me that they may be able to machine the inside bearing area for the mustang seal, solving...

My rotors are on the way and the machine shop is waiting for them. I havent tried to source the seal yet but everything elso is on track. I am assembling my K-frame complete out of the car and will post photos on my build thread. Glad to have such a great resource as this site. Thanks t...

I went to my machine shop today and talked to him about the machine work needed on the soon-to-be-purchased 66/67 Mustang rotors. He agreed to do the work, thought it could take about 3 hours ($250.00) but agreed to bill me just for the shop time it took. It looks like i will be ordering the...

I have attached my version if the summary of the LBP Mustang disc conversion for 4piston KH brakes. I did this after printing all 6 pages of the thread began by Longgone and needing to do this conversion myself, trying to educate myself. I hope the attachement works as I built it in exell.

By my book, the prop valve is built into the front chamber of the master cylinder and the block is just a distribution point for the front & rear. JMHO, Rat

When I was young & stupid. Driving home in my 51 Chev pickup bone stock except for 235 engine. Got off work & heading for the freeway, at the stoplight the pedal went to the floor, NO stopping at all. Downshifted through the intersection, wheeling through the adjoining gas station dodging gas...

I know this has been covered but what would be an option for a SBP disc brake conversion on my 67 notch. It is manual drum now and I have just been through them but I really want disc brakes for the front. TIA, Rat
