No need to drill the spindle. You can get a special castle nut that is thinner or reverse your castle nut.

I have a 55 Chevy I had a disc brakes up front keeping drum brakes in the rear I installed the brake booster bled the master cylinder but my rear brakes are not catching wanted to get some help what it could be

[@fiddlerpin]

You should explain what torque spec you use on your spindle nut. Roller bearings have zero preload

At least use a large style caliper D52 kit. They are showing metric calipers

I wonder why no one talks about changing the ratio of the pedal itself when going to a power system? I don't get it. Every detail has been change and upgraded for braking except for that?

You don't need to change the ratio of the pedal. I have installed this kit and it is not necessary.

Typical advertising fluff video. No mention of the details of attaching the caliper mounting bracket, or the spacers used for the steering arm reinstall. Does this change the alignment? No mention of any important detail like that. It's all about the pretty paint in the Chrome and the new trinket advertisements. Geezz

Can anybody tell me what master cylinder to use for none power disc disc conversion

The stock one

Seems nobody knows how to mount their alternator correctly. Most are using the chrome bracket from a speed shop and aren't using the right lower mount which allows near zero adjustment. Should use a lower alternator mount from a mid 60's camaro or chevelle so you get more adjustment.
