Hey man I'm doing this on my 63 and I'm kinda confused on the proportioning valve install ... do I have to re route the rear brake line to get it over to the prop valve ? The rear line is routed down the pass side and into a distribution block
Off the top of my head I want to say 0.75”. I believe I was able to push the wheels out an additional 1” with the right backspacing on the new 15” rally wheels. It ended up being perfect, so much better than how far sunk in the stock wheels are.
@@leojt9423 Yeah that will work for some people. I think most brake kits do move them out atleast 3/4 inch per side. I however need a zero offset (original spacing) because Im running reversed wheels. Ive been looking for months and i cant find what i need that works with "factory style" (CPP) drop spindles. Its been a nightmare. So far ive had 3 different brake setups and ive tried 3 different spindles. About to throw the damn shitty drums back on and say F it.
Thank you so much for these vids! about to order parts for my 68 impala soon :) was worried there was going to be a lot more hammering involved!
Hey thank you for the feedback! Glad you got some use out of it. The disc brakes are no installed 100% and work very well.
Hey bud! Great job! I'm going to be doing this to my 67 pretty soon. What kind of grease are you using for the bearings?
Hey there, thank you! Just standard gold colored bearing grease you’d find anywhere. The bearing packing tool really makes quick work!!
@@leojt9423 awesome! thanks a lot!! 🤘
@@nehemiahviscarra9014 you are welcome, best of luck!!

Hey man can you send me a pm? I’ll text you pics
@@leojt9423 for sure man that'd be great!
Think I got the same kit but my rotor doesnt sit flush on the spindle. Being that theres no instructions I found myself here. Am I missing something?
kinda late but, maybe missing the bearing at 0:43 ?
Nice work man! How much do you think it’ll cost for parts and labor for all 4 wheels ?
miguel ramos sorry man! Missed the message. Usually really good about that stuff. Probably $500 for full disc set up
How far does this setup move the wheels out?
