Starting my Early-A Conversion to disc

Read a lot on here over the years related to disc brake conversions for my 65. Was told way back in 2002 how todo the conversion on the 62-65 list. Time and money combinations of availability have always been the challenge.

In October, I started to get a front wheel cylinder leak just before surgery, and haven't tore it down yet. But always said, the next wheel cylinder to go, I will make the conversion...

My dart has 10"drums, and I rebuilt the suspension in early 2002 it has about 25k miles on it since then. So ball joints are still tight. Need a boot on the lower, saw it was cracked the last time I was under it.

In 2004, I picked up 66 formulas S parts from the upper control arms to the lower control arms for a good price ($300) from speedway wrecking yard in Erie, CO. Will only use the spindles out of this, but may eventually use the LCAs if I ever put a front sway bar in. The Calipers need pistons. Rebuilt is almost as cheap as rebuilding them. Will turn the rotors and keep around for spares. May do the same for the calipers at some point.

I've been collecting various parts since then, and think I have most everything I need with my Darts Christmas order coming from rock auto.

Raybestos Master Cylinder for a 67 dart.
Inline Tube Lines from to MC to proportioning valve.
Inline tube proportioning valve.
Rebuilt calipers on order from rock auto. ( dart's Christmas present)
Inline tube caliper crossover lines.
New brake hose and retainers.
New brake pads with hardware kit
New rotors.
New bearings, retaining nut and washer and lock.

Anything missing that you see?

I'm planning to install it all before the top down new year's cruise I do on Jan 1st every year.
