WTB: Front Disk Brakes, Rim Blow Wheel

[griffbl]

Gents-

I have found a 1971 Mach 1. It has front drum brakes. If possible, I would like to buy everything I need to convert it to factory style, front disk brakes found on 1971-1973 mustangs. I can go to MP Master Power brakes, but I do not think they are factory correct, and that is what I would prefer.

Thanks!

Brad

I just replaced the front disc brakes in my 71 to a wilwood set so i have all the old components. My car came from factory with disc brakes but i have owned it for only 2 years so i dont know whats original. I dont have the spindles since i kept the ones. I have discs, calipers with pads, dust covers, hoses and hardware.

Were they working properly when you removed them? I think I can use my spindles, unless I am mistaken. Can you email me photos of what you have, and your asking price please sir? [email protected] thanks!

To do a complete conversion you need

pedal assembly

proportioning valve

booster and M/C

spindles, rotors, caliper assemblies

Hoses

You can either replace or bend and adapt the lines

If Tony doesn't have everything you need , let me know.

I also have the M/C but not the booster..... all was working well before replacing. I will communicate with you via PM and email.

OEM drum and disc spindles are different. However, you can get aftermarket conversions that fit the drum brake spindles.

The spindles are the only part you really need. Everything else can be bought from local parts stores. Rotors, calipers, bearings, pads. Ect. I left the stock drum brake master cylinder in mine and stock proportioning valve. Mine are not power but work great. I have the power stuff in attic just have t got it installed yet.
