Have reviewed the two front disc brake conversion kits for the 1953 Commander (Turner and the Hot Rods and Brakes kits) - I see that the Turner kit uses a 1968 Ford Mustang / Cougar Rotor and what looks like a spacer that is placed onto the Studebaker spindle.
My question is: Aside from the caliper mounting bracket, does anyone see any obvious issues with using a Wilwood kit for a 1968 Mustang and modifying the bracket for the Wilwood Calipers?
I'm not sure how important the spacer would be? - but looks like I can get them - if necessary from Turner Brake.
I know the kits out there have great reviews but I am preparing the car for Original Pan Am in La Carrera Panamericana. I must keep the stock suspension but looking for four or six piston calipers disc brakes. Not sure if the kits available are up to the task or are intended for racing on mountain roads.
