Good video for a good product. I personally did it , had to relocate the upper grease fitting on the left spindle . Being 78 years old it took all day to complete the entire project. Well worth the time . Everything went smoothly as planned .
Great video thanks for sharing.
With all the different drum brake spindles made over the years, I'm wondering of any will bolt right up replacing the stock ones...or are adaptable by using alternate sets of bearings. Any ideas out there?
I'm using original hubs/drums on Henry's lady - '30 Model A. Used to be a common swap but seems hard to find usable hubs.
Yes I could do the disk conversion, but I'm building an era correct hot rod.
Looked for the serpentine belt system is it available?
Can this be done on rear drums?
Looking for a set of 53-56 F100 spindles, I have a set but they're pretty well abused lol
I know this is a pretty old video, but I am in the process of installing the same kit on my '54 F100. Unfortunately, the grease fittings on the kingpin interfere with the Wilwood caliper bracket. I'm wondering if you ran into the same issue and that's why you opted to mount the caliper on the frontside? Did you explore the possibility of low profile grease fittings? Thanks!
MIke W it’s easy to get the bracket and caliper installed incorrectly. The instructions don’t seem to be 100% right
I had the same issue with my 54 F 100 . I replaced the old grease fittings g with a screw in plug and drilled and tapped a new location for a new fitting . I had absolutely no problems as it went as planned and smoothly.
Stupid question... don’t be mad at me if I’m wrong , would this conversation fit on my stock suspension stock drum brakes 1953 ford custom line or ford crown Victoria?
This kit won't work but they have a package that will .
An absolute must to have if you drive on today's freeways .
do you know where i can find the kit conversion but for f150 1985?? i've been trying to find it but i cant
Ask google , you'll find several suppliers.
