- This time at the Quick Speed Shop I'm going to show you the steps to install Speedway Motors 11" disc brake kit for 1937-1948 Ford spindles. I ordered this kit with a 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern, but it is also available in 5 on 4 3/4" pattern as well. I show each step of the installation on the dropped axle on my 1929 Model A Ford hot rod shop truck.

DING!! Yer Hot Pocket is done. Great fix with the toaster oven.. Great video as always.
Thank you very much. So easy a caveman (me) can do it! Will be doing this on my 1941 ford super deluxe with new bendix brakes on the rear.
Man Price went up you lucky dog lol Just got my kit for 417.99. Nice video.

484.99 as of 11/24/21
Thanks for a great video! I'm installing the same kit and the Speedway instructions are not very clear.
Anybody else catch the Michael Scott reference in there?
Thanks for sharing, I’ll be doing this to my 29’ soon. I’m tired of people not realizing how they can’t slam on brakes in front of a 100 yr old car.
You can use your toaster oven for powder coating too. I got the biggest toaster oven I could find, after a while you can't see through the window anymore!
Do you have the part numbers for those rotors and calipers? Much thanks and great content!
It's the Speedway 11 inch rotor kit for early Ford axles. Easy to find on the website.
I have a set of 15 '' ford steel rims , they are older but I don't know how old , do you think they will fit on this conversion ? great vid. keep up the good work
They will fit as long as they are 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern AND they don't have the super small center hole that some Ford wheels had. For example, early '50s Ford car wheels have the right bolt pattern, but the hub hole is too small to fit the late-model rotor.
Quick question. I have this exact kit I'm about to put on my '36 ford (with '37 spindles I just put on). Why are the rotors scraping the pads when you spin them around at the end? Is that normal after an install and they will open back up off the rotor once you hook it to the hydraulic lines and bleed?
Pads always drag on the rotors a little. If there was a gap, every time you hit the brakes the pedal would go to the floor until the pads made contact.
Got it. Thank you!
Is there a reason you can't use this kit on a 30 axle? I see all the kits are for 36-48 spindles.
The axle isn't the problem, it's the spindles. All my axles are Model A axles. You need '37 and up spindles
With the ease the rotor dropped onto the spindle are you not concerned that the rear bearing inner race is spinning on the adapter rendering the benefit of bearing useless?
It fit good and has been fine for several thousand miles.
@@QuickSpeedShop I guess the load on the spindle from the front (castled) nut locks it together.
I am going to tell the toaster oven POLICE! so look out...buddy
What spindles are you using with the steering arms. All the kits I see the spindles has no arms. Thanks.
Stock '37-'41 Ford spindles.
If your spindles are missing the steering arms You will need www.speedwaymotors dot com/1937-48-Ford-Steering-Arms-3-3-4-Inch-Drop,25541.html
Sorry I had to corrupt the link or CZcams would have thought it was spam just remove the "dot" for a "." If that makes sense
Per chance are you running discs in the rear?
No, just 8" Ford with 10x2" drums.
Is the rotor adapter in the kit?
What do you mean by rotor adapter? These rotors bolt directly onto '37-'48 Ford spindles.
have you ever installed 14” wheels with this kit ?
No, I haven't. I'd email Speedway and ask them.
@@QuickSpeedShop say min 15”. some say they have used
I never tried 14" so I don't know.
Is the rotor adapter in this kit?
I don't know what you mean by adapter. These rotors bolt right onto '37-'48 Ford spindles.
@@QuickSpeedShop maybe I should have called it a stainless sleeve. It’s the very first item you slide onto the spindle shaft.
The kit comes with everything to just bolt them on old Ford spindles '37-'48. You can look it up at speedwaymotors.com
That's what she said jokes are marginal 6:45 is a better ref w/o being dirty :-p My Speedway bearings are stamped CHINA, if you dislike China bearings order some better ones
I did not get any instructions and when I called speedway I was told to follow the instructions. They were no help.

Comments? Yes, if I see them.
