Hey everyone!
I`m sure i`m not the first to do this, so i hope you guys to help me)
So i have 1970 plymouth belvedere 4door with slant 6 and drum brakes. Because it is impossible to find here, in russia, proper mopar rear end (and shipping from US will cost unreal money) i bought ford 8.8 rear end from explorer with disc breaks. So now i need front disc breaks kit and booster, master cylinderand and disc/disc proportioning valve kit. I think i found correct front disc breaks kit, but can`t found master cylinder+booster+disc/disc proportioning valve as kit. Is it has to be "mopar" or for example GM master cylinder+porportioning valve kit will fits mopar booster? Any standard solutions known?
 
I switched from drums to discs on my 70 coronet. 80's caliper slider style. Everything is readily available at parts stores in the U.S. idk about where your from. I got a remanufactured master cylinder for disc's and drums. Never changed proportioning valve. Breaks just fine. If anything I would put an adjustable prop valve. I have my conversion in one of my threads.
