4-wheel disc conversion?

I really love this '68.
What I don't love is the brakes. lolife's thread is awesome.
But does anyone sell a 4-wheel kit? the best 4-wheel conversion thread?
I want 5 lugs on all corners and stock height.

Thanks for any help.

Dave

Re: 4-wheel disc conversion?

I found AZ performance through the Baer thread. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=600417

So I think I'm good. Looking to do 16"s or 17"s all around. Will listen to opinions(or take direction to thread with previously stated opinions).

I bought a 4 wheel disc brake conversion at CPP for my 72.

Re: 4-wheel disc conversion?

Thanks Jarwood and Hutch. I caught those in lolife99's conversion thread.

Andrew, I am currently 6-lugs all around.

So far, I've seen CPP, early classic, Baer, Wilwood, & McGaughy's kit. CPP & EC come with EVERYthing needed, correct? This should be plenty to choose from.
