62' Disc Brake upgrade

Post by Choppermike »

Does anyone know of a way to upgrade my straight front axle to disc brakes without buying one of those expensive kits? Just wanting to know what rotors may fit my spindles.

That's great info. I just added ECI to my "favorites!" I'm going to leave the 62 F-250 stock for now but I'd love to put front discs on my 55 Fairlane. It looks like the kit is complete and as they say on TV "so easy a caveman could do it!"
