Converting from drum brakes to disc.

Hi ya! I was wondering if anyone has done a drum to disc conversion on a 66 convertible? I am having problems with the rear brakes and thought this would be a good time to convert them. How dificult is this? Any hints and sugestions would be helpful.

Thanks,
Brad

This would normally go up one level in the "Classic Mustangs" section; but hey - no blood, no foul!

Do a Stangnet search on "Swapper" (if they've finally fixed the search engine); or look up one of t_chelle16's or oboebrian's posts and click on the (something like) "tech FAQ" link on their sig's bragfile. You'll find links to many front-wheel drum-to-disk conversions; and several rear-wheel conversions, including one by a forum member (Ultrastang).
