That was not the reason for the swap. I needed new drums (out of round and one had a chunk out of the side) and shoes for the front anyway. Instead of spending the money to do that job right, I decided to just swap out the discs. I actually was unaware the rears weren't working. I just thought...

Nobody answered the last post, but I did go ahead and buy a set. New pads rattled a bit when not applied, so figured this would solve it.

It's all back together and back on the road. I'd say the swap was worth it so far, but not gonna lie, getting that combo valve swapped in place of the original distribution block sucked. Ended up having to cut 4 of the 5 lines off and redo them. I did not rebuild the combo valve (5 port cast...

I got everything cleaned up and repainted. Booster and new master installed. Saving the combo valve for last. Unfortunately, this will take longer because I found my upper control arm bushings shot and the dust boots torn on all the ball joints. Going to rectify those issues before I slap the...

I'll try to get you some soon. Nothing too drastic has changed beside what was already mentioned. I just finished the TTI exhaust this week (went smooth with the exception of having to cut, reclock, and weld the passenger manifold flange). Hopefully this weekend I'm installing the 1971/72 disc...

My lines are relatively new. The rubber hoses will be replaced though.

Can you send a link? I'm having trouble finding the thread

Looking for advice. I am getting ready to convert my 1970 Newport (factory power drum) to disc brake. I bought the parts shown in the pic including the single piece cast iron combination valve. I'm reading some conflicting information online. DO I EVEN NEED TO INSTALL THIS? Several, including...

I'm not. Another member here is parting out a Fury and selling me the front hardware. Since we're on the subject, where's a good source for factory brake parts other than rock auto?

Thanks John Since May, it got new 17" torque thrusts, all new ignition, rebuilt carb (it had been 4bbl swapped), new radiator, new fan, new water pump, new motor mounts (motor mount broke on WOT and slung the fan into the rad). By the end of the summer, it will have a front disc conversion...

I just happened to come across this post while searching around. In case any of you guys still had questions, I'm the guy that bought this car.

Is it front disc or drum? I'm looking to convert my '70 Newport
