1970 Conversion from drum to disc question

[Under Pressure]

since my GTX is a factory PB car, can I just convert the front drums to disc by buying the disc and caliper conversion kit, or do I need to also update the booster and MC?
All advice greatly appreciated
Thanks, Bill

I recommend the Dr Diff kit
Send a email to Dr Diff and he will reply quickly with exactly what you'll need
I'm sure you will need a disc master cylinder and maybe dual booster

MO disc master.

What is a "dual booster" ??

Dual diaphragm booster is sometimes required for disc brakes. Ask Dr Diff

Your going to need new spindles, the disc calipers and bracket, rotor, and then the Bendix booster and Disc Master cylinder. Your then going to need to add the KH Metering valve for front, and the proportioning valve for the rear. You can find a lot of this stuff original, if you want to keep it OEM. 70-72 B and E used same stuff as far as rotors, calipers, brackets and valves.
