Simple question.....

[33 IMP]

Who has a non-power disc brake conversion kit for a 62plymouth, that uses the stock drum spindles. I'm 68, and working in the driveway, i am NOT gonna change knuckles, or pay for knuckles i dont want to use.
I would automatically buy from Dr Diff, but i think all his kits need the spindles changed, and i WONT DO THAT.

You might look at wilwood. I did their conversion kit on my 67 coronet with the factory drum brake spindles.

Aron Gleason is correct. I installed Wilwood front discs on my 63 330 wagon & it used my stock drum spindles.

I understand that you're working outside, but changing spindles is not a difficult job, no matter where you're working. Just my opinion.

I put the SSBC kit on my Charger a few years back.
Very easy and works well I'm using a parts store master cylinder from a 70.

There is one for sale here:

What size wheels are you using? Makes a difference.
I was able to use my 14" original steel wheels on the Charger with a 1/4" spacer.

I am not a particular fan of wilwood. I think there is a surcharge for the wilwood name on their parts. I'm also not a fan of aluminum hubs, and two piece rotors.
I was looking at the leeds kit at summit, it has a maching master and proportioning valve. Also, gonna try and figure out which scarebird kit will work, but struggling with their website. Apparently the dont want to actually talk to a customer on the phone, unless they order something.
Using 15" wheels, steelies, centerlines, and tt2s.

That is a big red flag for me, one that would prevent me from buying anything from them. If you have a question or problem down the road do you think they would all of a sudden answer their phone?
Have you talked to Cass to see if he offers anything using the stock spindles? I have bought piles of stuff from him over the years, mostly because his customer service is second to none. Like stated previously, a spindle change is no big deal, which I am certain you already know....
