So I recently made a post about how I just bought a 71 Maverick as my first car & how I want to immediately switch from drum to disc brakes. After some browsing I stumbled upon these http://www.wilwood.com/BrakeKits/Br...odel=Maverick&option=Drum+Brake+Front+Spindle From the looks of it, it comes with everything I need without having to change my spindles. But my question is, would I be needing anything else? Like different brake lines or a different type of master cylinder? Been reading a lot on both and see different answers so I'm not too sure what to do. And if anyone has any experience with those brakes or doing a drum to disc conversion, any input would be nice. Thanks. And go easy on me guys, I love cars but this is my first one so I don't know much on what to do haha
It appears the kit has everything you need for the swap, cept maybe change master to disk/drum if your keeping drum on rear. Also, new wheels are needed if ur have OE drum wheels now.
You may need to reform the hard line for the way that the brake lines go to the calipers. Don't ask how I know this (it makes the stopping be a little more interesting and a lot long after the brake line crimps).
"can be used with either manual or power boost master cylinders" I would call and ask about the M/C...
