<VV> Disc brakes on a Rampside

[Joel Rushworth]

A Tri-5 Chevy Disc Brake conversion kit is almost a direct bolt in.  The only required modifications are enlarging the hole for the lower ball joint to accept the FC size, and of course, modifying the braking system, with either a proportioning valve, a Disc/Drum Master Cylinder, or preferably both.

I did this on my RS about a decade ago, and also used the spindles with a 2” drop.  Dramatically improves the “stance” of an FC IMO.

Joel

Subject: <VV> Disc brakes on a Rampside

I had a customer call this morning and ask if it was feasible to install
disc brakes on her Rampside. I don't know if it
has been done or not. If so, can one of you tell me if such a kit is
available and which parts were used.

Regards,
Mike McCrae
