I've started doing the drum to disc swap from scratch I've sourced every thing except the caliper hardware does anyone have any retaining springs pins and or bushing i found the calipers online and the break lines that bolt to it. Just haven't found the hardware for caliper thank you.

Push the button, Max...
Most of the small bits & pieces can be sourced from Mustang hardware kits of a similar vintage, which used very similar KH brakes.
RockAuto stocks them, along with all the other usual sources. Also Mustang vendors.

I just did some quick looking it doesn't look very similar too the Mopar kh retainer springs and such ?
Also the KH calipers are hard mounted no pins or bushings like on sliding caliper disks
Are you working with single piston calipers? or the four piston calipers?
You have me confused with "retaining springs" pins, bushings, so i figure you have single piston calipers.
Post a picture, what you have.

Post the caliper part number you ordered
Cardone184407 same one as rock auto
This is the entire KH 4 piston disk setup.

That's a disc brake set up of mine that i rebuilt, and then sold, here on this forum.
Glad that you here, helping this guy out.

Ok so we are talking the same calipers
The KH 4 piston calipers mount to the spindle solid.
The 4 pistons make the clamping force.
2 from the front and 2 on the back.
The caliper does not move.
That was a good looking set.
Some time in the future I'll be going the same swap on my #2 67 Dart Convert

Just curious what a set like this would run in todays money?
Pretty sure that set left here at $900.00 dollars.
