Why is everyone making this so difficult? Just swap to the big bolt pattern73-76 disc brakes including the upper control arms. Done deal. End of story. People have been doing it fifty years.

If there was a way to do it cheaper and better, it would have been found out.
There are ways to do it cheaper, there are ways to do it better, and there is a way to do it cheaper and better...
...but with the right junkyard nearby, none of that may necessarily apply. It's hard to know exactly what would work best for the OP all the way here at my desk and chair. Being there is a whole 'nother story.

I am not sure I agree with any of that regarding a street car. The factory stuff is usually the best bang for the buck.
I know if I build another one.........I will not have a brake system with Toyota this and Honda that. I don't give a damn how easy the parts are to come by.
No offense to anyone who uses that stuff. It works.....and it's smart.........it's simply not my preference.
Now that's what I'd call the best way to do it.Maybe we have a member in his area that can help with the right factory parts. Maybe somebody will step up.
Well seeing I have blown my entire budget on fixing the million little problems that were wrong with my cAr. I got in touch with a local machniest who has built and raced cArs for years. He is machining me brand new hubs with the 5x4.5 bolt pattern to fit my stock spindles. We agreed if it doesn't work then I will unfortunately park the car until spring and collect 73-76 parts over the winter. i will kee everyone posted on the results
