The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop disc brakes

Getting ready to put discs in the front of my '39. Where is the best place to find a turnkey package without having to scour the yards. Also what is the best rear to match the bolt pattern. (5 on 5?) I'm ready to go 15" if necessary but would like to keep stock hubcaps. I'm putting in a new 235 with a S10 T5 behind it. Whats everybody using?

Go get yourself a copy of Classic Trucks or Custom Classic Trucks and check out the vendors that advertise in them. I'll bet there's at least a half dozen that do just suspension and brake upgrades and conversions. Hope this helps some,

Thanks Scott: I'm looking into it

i bought my front end adapters from ECI... they have a very informative catalog and a good website: www.ecihotrodbrakes.com
their adapter will allow me to use chevy rotors and calipers with my stock straight axle...
i'm building a '35 pickup w/350 tripower & 4speed and i'm using an s10/2wd rearend... my bolt circle will be standard 4 3/4" chevy so i can use about any wheels i want too and have the front match the rear... most likely chevy rally wheels as i'm striving for an all chevy theme as much as possible... plenty of chevy stuff available too...
sounds like you'll have a great truck...
