Give your classic AMC / Rambler improved stopping power & serviceability with our exclusive front drum to front disc brake conversion kit.  Our kit has been around for almost 40 years and has proven to be the most comprehensive kit on the market. We have hand-selected the highest quality all-new components to provide everything you need for a true bolt-on kit.  Our brake kit is ideal for cars that require new hubs, where new hubs and rotors are no longer available, or where original Bendix or Kelsey Hayes calipers are no longer available requiring almost the same amount of money as the brake kit for rebuilding  

  • Kit includes 11" vented disc brake rotors with wheel studs; new single-piston brake calipers with integrated dust seals; upgraded carbon ceramic brake pads for dramatically improved stopping power, wheel bearings, races, & seals; D.O.T. approved rubber brake hoses; all-new spindle pins; custom made laser-cut brackets, custom made spindle spacers; grease caps, all necessary mounting hardware, and a disc brake proportioning valve
  • Bonus! Our single-disc brake calipers are brand new and have integrated dust seals not found on Wilwood disc brake calipers.
  • Optional:  Stainless braided Teflon lined D.O.T. approved brake hose get rid of mushy pedal feel, slotted performance disc brake rotors prevent pads from glazing, D.O.T. 5.1 brake fluid won't absorb moisture and is compatible with D.O.T. 3 & 4 fluids
  • Master Cylinder Change Required:  No.  Works with your existing master cylinder
  • Brake Booster Change Required:  No.  Works with your existing brake booster (if equipped).
  • Manual Brakes Compatible:  Yes, in fact this kit will transform the stopping power of your manual brake equipped car.  This is nice because there are NO bolt-on power brake conversions available for AMC, Rambler or Eagle cars.  For that's you'll need a donor car, all the brackets, pedal assembly, linkage, a booster with pushrod, a master cylinder, etc.
  • Wheel Fitment:  Fits factory or aftermarket 14" or larger wheels with factory 5"x4.5" bolt pattern.  Aftermarket wheels will be required on 1955-1963 Ramblers to clear the brake hub - See our 15x6" Magnum 500 wheels which will fit these applications.
