Help Picking a good front disc brake kit.
Help Picking a good front disc brake kit.
hey guys I need you help picking a good disc brake kit that's not going to have my wife going nuts.I have a $600 price limit..I have a 1969 cutlass S and I found a kit on ebay but wanted to know if someone has used it or know about this kit good or bad. Also open to hear about others disc brake kits that I should look into. If someone has a diagram of my car that would be great to have or even know a link please let me know.
Thanks guys

The cheapest decent disc conversion I’ve seen is different kits from The Right Stuff Detailing. I haven’t personally used one of their kits yet, but I plan on giving their 4 wheel disc kit a shot in the near future.
Check around of the forums about this brand. The little research I’ve done on it, it seems like most guys are more than happy with these kits for daily driver cars just looking for a disc upgrade, and not overly concerned with being totally factory correct. Non-race stuff in other words.
This kit here is hard to beat pricewise since it’s so complete. $505.75 including a new master and booster. They also have all different levels of kits if you’re really trying to keep on a tight budget.

What porter said I used the 4 wheel disc set up from them they are at www.getdiscbrakes.com they were extremely helpful and their service was second to none, look at my thread in major builds and you can see the kit , I went a little overboard with powder coating calipers stainless lines 9 inch delco booster to give me some room with the 455 valve covers , I also upgraded to stainless steel hoses. It was a straight forward and easy kit to install just my humble opinion haven't driven the car yet but I can not say enough about there service etc they went way above and beyond
