Dart Discs

[DARTLARRY]

I RECENTLY PICKED UP THE FULL FRONT DISC SETUP OFF OF A 75 DART FOR 75 DOLLARS. I GOT THE SPINDLES, ROTORS, CALIPERS, UPPER CONTROL ARMS, LOWER CONTROL ARMS, AND MASTER CYLINDER THIS IS A MANUAL SETUP. WHICH I HOPE WILL BE FINE I WANT TO SAVE ROOM BY NOT HAVING A BOOSTER IN THE COMPARTMENT. THE ONLY THING THAT I DID NOT GET WAS THE PROPORTIONING VALVE . BUT I HAVE A FEW LAYING AROUND. MY QUESTION IS AM I MISSING ANYTHING TO MAKE THE SWAP FROM 10 INCH DRUMS TO DISCS. CAN YOU USE ANY DISC PROPORTIONING VALVE OR IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN POWER AND MANUAL. ALSO I HAVE A B BODY REAREND UNDER MY 72 DART WHAT IS THE BIGGEST TIRE COMBO THAT OTHERS HAVE USED WITHOUT TIRE RUB ON FENDERWELLS. I KNOW THIS IS ALOT OF QUESTIONS IN ONE THREAD BUT ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED :scratch: THANKS

Larry you need a Divider block and prop valve from a donor disc brake car 73 - 76, looks like they use the same part no. for man or power set up. I would also put on new front brake hoses for cheap insurance.

For the biggest tire, I had 225 60r 16's on the 65 Cuda, no rubbing at all. And had good clearence from ball joints and steering parts. The closest the tire came to was the front sway bar, but didn't rub. My rims were 16 X 7 with 5" back space.
