Rebuild front suspention, add disc brakes to 66 conv
 
I hope to do a late winter project listed above. I want to keep my original 14" Rally I wheels. Any advice? Any kits better or worse? I see Ames has a kit that reuses backing plates. FYI I have a drive on hoist. Any good videos? Thanks in advance for help

Disc brake conversion for 66 14" Rally I wheels a success
 
I'm pleased to report that my disc brake conversion kit from Ames for 14" wheels is a success. I have about 3/8" clearance to my original Rally I wheels. Kit was very complete. Thanks Ames

Nice to see something aftermarket actually works. Lucky you.

Which kit did you use for the conversion? Growing moss waiting for Inline Tube to restock their kits.

Thanks!

Ames R440BA. I had to drill out 4 spindle holes from 7/16" to 1/2", no big deal. New setup does not use dust sheids. No probelm either. I'm very happy with outcome. Now I have brakes.
