Re: disc brake conversion



I e-mailed Bob Mosher directly (2007)  a few years ago
I asked him for his  recommendation (on my '63 dodge 2 dr post)
Stainless Steel brake corp is what he used at the time and I'm assuming
he still is- Not the most economical , I beleive i paid close to $1000.00 (the Cdn $ was a little weak at the time) for a 4 piston caliper set-up - but it was straight forward to install and works good
good luck
