Hydraulic brake conversion for 35
 

What s the best hydraulic brake conversion to put on a stock 35 coupe, either aftermarket or other year ford that will fit. Do you have to change spindles? THANKS

I did a '35 sedan using ECI front disc coversion w/5 on 5.5 bolt pattern.....real simple but I had a 9" out back w/drum good combo.
I first did the Buick fin drum conversion......nowhere near as good or simple as the ECI kit.

Ron is right, but still call Richard Lacy for the adapter to use your original pedals and a hydraulic master cylinder.

I'm actually pretty darn happy with my finely tuned and maintained mechanicals on my stock/original '35 fordor. Now, if I really wanted an improved hydraulic braking system I would leap frog the '39 to '48 Ford system and go directly for the repro Lincoln system combined with Richard Lacy's kit that uses the stock '35 brake pedals. His system eliminates the need to convert to a '39 clutch/brake pedal assembly that would also require a hole to be cut in the floor pan to fill/refill the MC. JMHO

I have Richard's kit on my both my '36 Cabriolet and Woodie, easy to install and works perfectly.
