: 65 chevelle disc brake conversion Kevins 65 Jun 20th, 03, 8:51 AM I need to know if I can use the Disc brakes from a 74 nova on my 65 Chevelle? And if so are there any modifications that I have to do to them. Any help would be great. graemlins/waving.gif Thanks, Kevin harleighguy Jun 21st, 03, 1:47 AM You might be able to use them, but am not sure. I think the Nova and the Camaro were rear steer set ups and you'll have to move the steering arms side for side I think to convert to a front steer. However I don't know if the spindles were the same after the '72s.... David Bates Jun 21st, 03, 8:07 AM Kevin, I currently have 1974 Nova splidles/calipers etc. on my 1965 El Camino and steering arms are installed pointing towards the front of the car. Pretty straight forward. Kevins 65 Jun 21st, 03, 9:43 AM The nova that I got the front end parts off of has the steering knuckle in the front. Will I have to change the tie rod ends? I'm not sure that is why I am asking for HELP :confused: David Bates Jun 22nd, 03, 5:37 PM Tie rod ends should be the same, mine were.
