    Well, Scarebird front discs DON'T WORK!!

    How can you form an opinion without any facts? Nobody cares how you feel. Kyle has every right to post what he did, and has handled this issue with calm- which we are trying to reciprocate.

    Well, Scarebird front discs DON'T WORK!!

    First off, let me state we are not Nordstrom's, nor are we Halliburton in our customer service. I do my best in this department, but will not, and cannot give away the store. All of our brackets for this application use 1/4" cold rolled steel, hence the distance from the face of the spindle is...

    Disc for non-disc 14" wheels now here!

    Expensive and unreliable.

    Disc for non-disc 14" wheels now here!

    We have a few of the first batch in stock. Yes, we also have a strict bolt in setup that would fit your 69, but you need 15" wheels for it- hence our redesign. We have a few of them left...

    Disc to fit your 64-67 non-disc rims now here!

    We did it! We now offer an affordable disc setup that will fit into even the early 14x5" rims. We were contacted by a rod shop that is restoring a 63 Falcon whose owner wanted to go disc but keep the hubcaps, so we gave it a shot. As you can see by the pic, it simply attaches to your...

    66 wheels on 68 disc brake set-up?

    No dice - Ford had to change rims in 68 to use the single piston caliper.

    Finished the scarebird conversion, a few notes.

    This is the Corvette rear piece... can't find the reall rare rear Camaro Z28 setup. The 1967-68 front though had the KH calipers, and do indeed mount the seals on the pistons. Maybe that is why the K-H units have such a crummy reputation? The later GM units work fine, as do the Mopar and...

    Finished the scarebird conversion, a few notes.

    Pretty much 1965-82 Corvettes only- very rare 1967-69 Z-28 rear disc cars used the same components. IIRC, they are K-H sourced pieces, same as the early Mustang setup...

    Finished the scarebird conversion, a few notes.

    I can't think of a GM caliper that had the seal in the piston- which ones did? The intermediate architecture runs 1969-2002, metric (just a smaller intermediate) from 1978-2000. The current "wraparound" style started in 1980 and is still used in some apps.

    Finished the scarebird conversion, a few notes.

    1. Unfortunately, the 1967 and later 4 lug that used the 5 lug spindle were not offered with a disc, so we do not have one either. The 5 lug rotors are 11-1/4" in diameter (nice pieces). A compentent machine shop may be able to convert it to 4 lug. 2. The GM metric calipers found in...

    Finished the scarebird conversion, a few notes.

    Glad it worked out well for you, and thank you for the endorsement. If 15" hoses will work better, we recommend using the 79 Seville front hoses. I will update our website and install sheet to reflect your experience with the master cylinder. Mention Stangnet when purchasing from us through...

    Noobie - Need brake upgrade

    Sure, please tell us BEFORE you order what rims you plan to use. We are having a hell of a time trying to make a budget setup fit inside the 76 5-1/2" wide steel rim... Our S10 calipered setup work well, but needs a 15" rim...

    For those of you who did the scarebird kit

    DJ, neither of the other two hoses listed have those brackets- they just have the same ends. Call us if you have any other issues @ 425 422 0273 M-F 9-6pm
