Does anybody know of any articles detailing this swap from doner vehicles? I have a 1965 SWB Chevy. Any help would be appreciated....

I did a simple search for articles on swapping out the drums for discs and came up with several seemingly good articles including this one (http://www.rodandcustommagazine.com/techarticles/135_0503_1942_ford_convertible_disc_brakes/) from Rod & Custom (http://www.rodandcustommagazine.com/)'s web site.

Hey...Ive seen info saying that 64 65 66 Chevy's could use suspension up to 87. 60 61 62 63 could also but the frame is a little shorter. I am trying to confirm this...wouldnt that be nice. Disc brakes for everyone. Ive made templates of my 66 and took some measurements. Going to hit the yards this week end to see what I can find. If anyone could assist.... please do. I would like to get vac assisted power with dual master cylinder and pro valve. 5 lug....(got my eye on some weld wheels) :rolleyes: would like to keep same geometry of truck. Not wanting to lower or raise. I realize most of what comes out of junk yard is going to have to be rebuilt. thanks for your time!
