Disc brake conversion

[Fergie]

Seeking help and information on which Mopar disc setup would fit my 66 charger. I have a 89 5th Ave that I can use if the parts will fit. Anybody have any advice on this? I am going to start the process when the snow leaves. Thanks in advance for your time and help.

I did my 67 charger using 74 Dart front spindles and rotors and switched them right to left so I could keep the stock sway bar. used a 74 Dart dual master cylinder, I had to add a proportioning valve (adjustable from JEGS) to even out the rear brakes- they came on too strong). It has worked great- no more surprise pull right or left with braking.

Using scavaged oem parts should be ok for a stock streeter. I went with an aftermarket SSBC kit to stop my 3900 brick at the dragstrip and the highway.

Thanks for the link. I read this one before but was just as confused nat the end. I was talking to a mopar man up here and he said I should be o.k. if I use everything off my donar car.
Thanks again, Fergie.

Thanks for the link. I looked at this on Mopar Action's web site, and couldn't find my answer. Since then I talked to a mopar man here and he says that if I use everything off the '89 newyorker I should be able to stop more than 3 times in a row. Thanks again, Fergie

I bought all the parts to do the front disk brake conversion at this site - http://www.doctordiff.com/front-disc-brake-kit-for-11.75-on-disc-knuckles.html - very happy with this kit, even without the booster the pedal is not heavy and stops very well.
