Default Disc Brakes

There is a guy in Sarasota, Fla runs a late T Pk Up Roadster that really runs HOT. He reciently installed Disc Brakes on the old gal and they work very well, He been stoped by the mountys for speeding so I guess he needs good brakes. Iceman

Default Re: Disc Brakes

I made up a set of disc brakes. Using motor cycle brakes. They worked great.
The cost was about $50 for parts. Back in the 80s. I may make up a new set.
If I can find the time. if any interest let me know.

I have looked into disk brakes, I found several but most used an 11 inch disk which seems quite large. Did you keep your rear drums for the parking brake?
Do you have a set of plans.
