  • In the modern day, disc brakes is a much better way to go compared to the traditional drum brakes of the past. We'll be installing the new disc brakes and showing the benefits of them.

    Rusty MC is not a good look. Don't really like the black though. Silver to match intake manifold or a cast iron color for headers is what I used. Great job though you can tell you take pride in your work specifically the small details. 👍

    I like the videos, you do a good cut. I have something similar to do on my 3/4 ton GMC just that my kit doesn't include the bearings.

    I love the work you guys doing. Definitely knows what u all dealing with. I did a work on my proportioning valve in the past it was my first. I dint know that you have to put clump on brake line when u change your caliper. Or else u mess up the proportioning valve the cylinder will go on the other side because of the major loss of break fluid! All & all I owe some technic & I have learned lots of thing in this channel. I like the spring removal tool from the 70s that’s save u some pain removing brake drum springs!

    Really enjoyed this video. I’ve watched other desperate conversion videos, but this one was the best I’ve seen. You always want the teacher to be smarter than the student. Good job. I will be converting my 61 Belair very soon, but also was wondering do you have any videos on how you converted your power steering from that ram system which I would like to do also.

    Love the work you guys do, but it hurt me when you painted the master black. I'm sure any clear will do, but I use Eastwood/SEM clears and its so good it still looks cast iron. Cant tell its painted and best part of all it doesn't rust. You guys are awesome. Keep the content coming

    Correction I apologize I thought you were going to put a different unit in there like a different spindle and unit cuz a lot of people will take like the spindle out of a 70 Chevelle or a 69 Impala and drop the lower and upper ball training to shove it all in there and put the new lines in but this is a whole different ball game my apologies to you
