I just installed a 4 wheel disk brake kit from Right Stuff Brakes on my 71. It was a good kit and everything installed really nice. They obviously make a front disk conversions as well. I would recommend them

My 68 had stock discs up front, I used the Right Stuff rear conversion as well. It was an easy install but difficult to bleed. If you get this system go to Right Stuff's web page and watch the video on how to adjust the E Brake and "properly bleed" the rear caliper. If you follow those instructions you'll be good to go.
