Disc Brake Kit Vendor

I had ordered a disc brake conversion kit from OPGI however they are out of stock and the ETA for replenishment is 8 weeks. Of course I was hoping to have the work done in Feb when the car is not being used.

Anyone know of another place/vendor to get the parts from? Prefer it as a kit.
Thanks!

You might try “The Right Stuff”, “Wilwood”, “Stainless Steel Brakes” they all make brake kits for your car. Either from their web site or places like Summit or Jets. If you would like to piece it together yourself go to the “tech editors desk” on this site, you will find a “sticky” that describes where to find all the pieces and where to get them....it’s also a good read before you get started.

Every one of the aftermarket disc brake kits use the same Chinesium spindles and brackets. Shop for price.

Personally, I'm cheap and I prefer saving money over one-stop-shopping. If that works for you, consider getting the "mini kit" from Right Stuff. This kit has the spindles, splash shields, and caliper brackets only. The rest of the brakes (calipers, rotors, bearings, hoses, master cylinder) are all readily available at any auto parts store so you can save shipping on the heavy parts. You can also get all that from RockAuto if the total cost ends up lower. Of course you'll need a combo valve (available all over the interwebs) and the correct brackets to hold the caliper hoses at the frame end (available from Inline). If you want pre-bend tube kits, just pick your vendor of choice.
