Re: 1970 c20 disc brake swap
If you have the time, patience, and a BFH you can do this. A pickle fork is sometimes handy as well as a floor jack. Keep researching on this site and Im sure you will find someone that has documented this swap. You might also want to replace your control arm bushings at the same time. Whenever I do a disk brake swap I replace any other items with wear also. Have you considered sourcing your parts from a newer donor that has discs already? You could have the rotors turned but buy new calipers,ball joints,hoses, and master cylinder. Inspect the spindles and booster and revive with some Krylon. If you dont already have a front sway bar grab that too. They make a huge difference. Just take your time gathering parts,clean and paint any old parts, and do lots of research. You will save plenty of cash and feel good too.
