Disc conversion done but have question ??

[1970-dart]

I took all the parts off the 74 I had. I changes over the upper and lower control arms sway and torsion bars as well as k frame.

My question is should I change anything else over ?? I saved the prop valve and both cars have manual brakes.


Thank you in advance

I have done over a dozen of these and never changed the prop valve , if your car has the shallow master cylinder you should put a disc brake one on . I like the big bore one from an older dodge van , it gives a nice pedal feel ( 19.95 at autozone )

I agree with mopar jimmie. I converted to disc on the front of my 67 barracuda and never changed the mc or distribution block and although they worked they weren't what you'd expect disc brakes to be. So today I installed a new disc drum master, scrapped the distribution block, put the tee in the front lines and installed the adjustable prop valve in the rear line and I'm getting ready to install the new lines on the wildwood brakes and give them a bleed. I just put an HDK front end in my car and might install the QA1 coil overs if I feel energetic. Seems like I'll never get it back on the road but I'm making progress

Kinda hard to call. We don't know "what you got" that you put it on, only "what you had" to take it off of...

I have a 70 swinger slant 6 originally but doing a v-8 swap now and all the disc brake setup k-frame torsion bars and all the steering parts came off a 74 swinger factory v-8 car.

I guess I should have pulled the master cylinder off the 74 as well.
