You can use a drum brake hub and mount a late model disc to it. This is how some of the late model disc brake conversions are done along with a custom bracket to locate the caliper properly.
as Rusty said....check out www.mustangsteve.com.
his system uses SN95 Cobra calipers/rotors. it requires the use of drum spindles/hubs, which allows you to use the Cobra rotors which are replaceable.
I went this way over some of the others because I wanted the big 13" Cobra brakes. It does, however, require the use of 17" or bigger wheels.
I believe the majority of folks are using the 1970 spindle since they are beefier. Although not installed yet, this is what I went with.
Travis,
I haven't sourced my spindle/hub yet.
Does the same hold true for 70 spindles as Rusty said for 67's (you can use either drum or disk spindles)?
I currently have stock 70 disks (and spindles) in the front but was thinking I couldn't use them, that I would have to go with drum spindles.
Do you know if the 70 disk spindles will work with the drum hubs?
Joe
65-67 spindles are the same for drum and disc. There is NO difference in the spindle. From 68 and up they are different.
