Description
5 lug power assist upgraded drum to disc brake conversion for 5 lug 64-66 Mustang, manual or power steering, includes 65.PBU power brake upgrade kit, 8 CYL SPINDLES REQUIRED.
The booster included is equipped with an aluminum master cylinder body with a high volume plastic reservoir, and a bell crank lever assembly between the booster and the brake pedal. This booster will mount along with an original equipment V8 clutch linkage and most likely with all aftermarket clutch linkages. This booster is very effective with either 2 or 4 wheel disc brake application. This kit will work well with automatic transmission cars as well.
COMPATIBILITY:
This kit is compatible with 65-73 Mustang, 62-69 Fairlane, 67-73 Cougar, 69-77 Maverick/Comet, 75-80 Granada/Monarch, and some Torino. This kit installs onto existing V8 drum brake type spindles. The spindles are not included. Users with 66 or later Falcon or pre 67 Mustang 6 cylinder cars will need to install 8 cylinder type spindles.
CONTENT:
Comes with PLAIN rotors, slotted rotors are no longer available. Booster included does not match the booster show in the product photo. Photos of the updated booster design are available upon request.
The kit includes everything needed to swap out your front drum brakes for OE Kelsey-Hayes type 4 piston caliper front disc brakes originally found on 1965-1967 V8 Mustang and other 60’s Ford cars. All new easy to install parts including dust shields, caliper brackets, corrosion protected calipers, brake pads, braided stainless steel brake hoses, hose brackets and attachment hardware, adjustable proportioning valve with convenient mounting bracket, a master cylinder with an integral residual pressure valve, master cylinder outlet adapter(s), an all metal master cylinder bleeding kit, an adjustable pushrod, wheel bearings, wheel seals, caliper attachment hardware, wheel attachment hardware, dust caps, performance slotted rotors with bearing races pre-installed, correct grade 8 attachment bolts, medium and high strength thread lockers, and high temperature wheel bearing grease. Note that you will need to adapt or re-fab your hard brake lines to accommodate the proportioning valve and the master cylinder.
Power brake versions include a correct power spec master cylinder, a booster, mounting brackets and hardware, and an adjustable push rod.
Most original V8 type14″ wheels will fit this conversion. This is the easiest kit to install, and the kit that you should choose if you desire to use your original wheels and/or maintain “originality”.
