rebuilt suspension and disc brakes. What a difference.
Finally I redid a front end and install disc brakes. I dont know what made a bigger improvement, new tires suspension or brakes. Much better now. I still need to do rear end and drill or swap axles. I used a prop valve from a 79 z28 and it seems to work good.

Re: rebuilt suspension and disc brakes. What a difference.
Even though my 72 has disk brakes, I sure want to upgrade them to new technology.
What brand/size did you go with? Did you do sway bars too? |

I went with what you have now. 72 spindles and disc set up.
Brake pedal feels like there is not enough power assist now. Kinda like running a big cam with low vacuum. I reused an old power booster.Is a disc brakes booster different? |
