72 rear disk brakes

[magoo72]

i recently began my spare 3.08 rear end rebuild complete w/ all new bearings and seals,and while i was at it I done a little research in disk brakes. now i am a poor boy ,so i got to be a self taught engineer. so i found away around the 500 buck disk brake CONVERSION setup for my classic cruiser. this is the way to go if you dont have that kinda dough.
go to the yards and find a 85 or 86 caprice,you know the big ole taxi cab and state trooper style. with rear disk brakes. and get the roters. next find a mid 80;s mid size car like a cutlis or monte carlo etc. and rob the calipers. brackets can be found at your local racecar shop for bout 15 bucks a peice. weld or bolt on the brackets,slide on the roter ,mount your caliper ,do the plumbin and you got yourself some real stopping power when you need to get your classic whoeup in a hurry!
i paid 13 $ for my CALIPERS,37$ for the roters,and 30 for the brackets. 80 $ for the main hardware plus plumbing cost and new brake pads.
gimmmi a holler if ya got any questions . i will be glad to help !!
