Just wondering about these as they will be the Final upgrade to the suspension. Anyone have these set up with a hotchkiss rear boxed suspension package and Sway bars? The rear end work should be done Very Soon and I am Already thinking about the front. Last time I replaced the Bushings and Ball joints with a PST super kit. It improved the Handling But On this Car The front needs to be done. I am wondering How much Better the tubular A arm Kit Is Compared to The Stock A arms with polygraphite set up. I want the Car to Handle better than Stock on the twisties. Any help or suggestions Please are welcome. I will be converting to Discs at the same time and I was wondering the Cheapest Route to go for the Big rotors. i dont care if they are slotted or Drilles. The Tubular a arms are supposed to allow B body spindles which allows for the Bigger 12" or 13" rotors to be Used. Im Only Gonna Buy the Parts I cant get at Napa or Parts america For the Conversion mail order. Maybe Dual piston calipers but i dont know if they are any better than a Single Large piston caliper. Thanks guys Please Help me out with Real world experience of these parts i mentioned.

I put a global west kit in a customers 70 chevelle about 4 years ago. If I remember corectly he bought used caprice police car spindles. the brakes where Baer racing.I dont see why you couldn't just use the b-body rebuilt calipers and new replacement rotors. His car handled great! the install was pretty straight foward. You can use a master cylinder for a 72 disc brake a-body. Remember you will also need a porportioning valve for a disc brake car or a adjustable one from the after market. Hope this helped
