rockable Posted June 30, 2010 Report Posted June 30, 2010 There are at least two people providing adapters for this now. OldDaddy and Scarebird. Is yours different? Quote
plymouth1947 Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Posted June 30, 2010 I'm selling the brackets to mount the caliper up ..Mine uses the stock hub after the drum is removed so that the track remains the same ,no special spacers or adaptors are needed and all the other parts are modern and can be purchased off the shelf at any local parts house...the only problem I've ran into is that the stock rims cannot be used.

Can you post pictures? Where are you located? Is the skull and cross bones in your profile an indication of the product you are selling? Edited June 30, 2010 by Don Coatney Quote

dndrodshop Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Sound like the conversion article I did for Tex Smith's magazine. http://www.dndrodshop.com/disc.htm Quote
mopar4life Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I made my disc conversion with ford crown vic rotors and mopar calipers. Using a lot of templates finally cut 1/2 steel plate. I have 14" magnum 500 on them. I did not want to use any bow tie parts on my mopar and wanted to keep the 14" rims. I had no choice but to make my own. I hope they work good, still working on it. Good luck with yours. Quote
plymouth1947 Posted July 1, 2010 Author Report Posted July 1, 2010 my setup utilizes all ford parts "staying clear of bowtie stuff to" so far it's working for me the calipers are in the stock mounting brackets that mount to the plate that I designed. no problems yet other then the issue with the stock wheels rubbing the caliper.
