Thanks for all the info guys. I know enough about cars to take apart things and put them back together correctly, but I don't know too much about optimizing everything. Would it be best just to replace the axle? Any suggestions on an axle to replace it with? One that I wouldn't have to replace the drivetrain too. I want to restore the car to its original look but I am definitely ok with upgrades that make it perform better and are safer.

Does anyone know the axle size for a 1954 Plymouth Belvedere? I am looking to convert the drum brakes to disc brakes. Of course every website doesn't show a match for my car and when I email them, they ask for the axle size. I think it's an 8.25 but other info online says it may be a 8.75. If there is anyone who has knowledge of this vehicle, I would appreciate the help. (Or maybe just someone to tell me exactly which kit to get?) I tried to upload pics but just one picture is larger than the 3gb limit. Thanks
