    1970 Disc brakes

    Excellent work. I would use bonded lining though,Riveted pads and shoes will crack at the rivet holes. Just make sure that the pins are lubricated with a silicon type grease. Quality pads and shoes are always bonded, never riveted. Clean the rotors with some brake clean on a clean rag so any...

    Disk brake conversion

    Rear disc conversions are really more eye candy than function. Front brakes do approx 80% of the braking. Only advantage of rear disc is driving in floods or road racing with constant brake use that will heat up the rotors in which case you should be using upgraded rotors pads and calipers...
