I have a 70 Challenger RT with Power HD Drums all around. I want to upgrade to front disc brakes but my car is also running 14" Rally Wheels. Without changing out all the wheels and tires, does anyone have a solution that worked for you? IS there a vendor that might sell a conversion package with all the needed parts? Thanks for your help and input!

Dr Diff is a true asset to the hobby. He is always will to give guidance based on what you want end result performance to be.

Here is an article that will give you some idea of what a complete upgrade entails using Factory parts. Enjoy.:

I bought a set a while back for my challenger with 14" wheels. My car isn't running so I can't say how good they are, but.... I have a couple issues. One is the booster and master cylinder isn't even close to a mopar design. So it looks really weird. Second the company doesn't really support Mopar, so not sure why they came out with this kit. THey have great resources for everything but Mopar and now don't really list this part. Third, I am not sure what replacement parts to use when I need to change rotors or pads. I take some of this into account. Go to someone that does Mopars specifically. I can't remember the manufacturer. I bought it cheap from Summit or somehwhere similar for about $800

Thanks for the link to this informative article. I am not sure if I can go to OEM style parts but I would like to. I do live in Hawaii and there are no wrecking yards and no Dodge dealers to lean on. Thanks again!

As I mentioned earlier, Text him or Email him... He doesn't typically answer the phone, it takes to much time away from working on stuff, he's a hands on guy, not a sit in the office type...

You might be able to text him & get him to call you on his schedule...

Thanks for the insight and good info. I will see what works best for him to make contact and discuss.
