I have a 69 chevelle w/ all drums and am wanting
a 4`disc brake setup. I am wanting to use the b-body 12" disc swap setup.
What is the best car to pull from?

Cjlandry, can you help me out with your custom tubular a-arms, who did you get to TIG weld them??

Whats the usual cost of one of the conversions?

What is the best car to build a rear disc setup for my car? It will be a 12 bolt.

When I went looking for B-Body spindles the 12" style were mostly on wagons- Caprice, Big Buick & Olds. 87-92 or so are the "desirable" years because the spindle casting is a bit lighter.

I've got a Word document with everything but the brake calipers and hoses confirmed. Application and/or part numbers. Do you want it?

I think I have about $600-$700 CND in parts so far. I'm putting everything new on the front end.
