Disc Brakes on a 41 Plymouth

[moparichard]

I have a 41 Plymouth coupe. I don't want to change the front end but would like to replace the current drum brakes with disc. Can anyone help?
Any suggestions?

Thanks

No photo but the 49-54 photo gives you a general idea. And they use Mopar parts. Pretty cool

Thanks for the information. I emailed them asking them to send me information. There's no information link for the 1939-42 Plymouth like for others.

A friend has a 42 but he installed a torsion bar set up from a Cordoba. These are cool cars. Got any photos?

No, but will take some tomorrow...its currently very rough...just started working on it...have had it for years...nothing sharp like your photo.

Here's a picture of my 41 plymouth. I'm putting a 360 in it.

That's a great coupe Richard. Looks like a fun project.

I can't really recommend it, but what I did on my '48 was retrofit some later c-Body spindles and upper control arms on it. Took some real work, and I never drove the car that way so I can't say it was the best. Sure seemed to have some promise though.

That looks like it in very good condition. My 40 is in pieces. You might do an internet search and find something. Good luck with your project, you've got a great start.

Cool!! So Mopar powered I assume??
'42's have to be rare...I've never seen one!!
