rear disc brake conversion

[390racer]

Can anyone reccomend a rear disc brake conversion kit for the 8 3/4 in a 72 Challenger.
Thanks

Check www.scarebird.com They make adapter kits that use stock, over the counter brake parts.

I'm in the process of doing a full brake system change to Wilwood front and rear discs. I'll be able to tell you how they are in a month or two, one they've arrived and been fitted. I prefer to do all the work on the car myself, but when it comes to brake installations, its time for a professional!

you have to watch the width or the rear calipers or they will hit the sway bar

I just installed a new Dana and rear disc kit( 10.7") from DrDiff. They fit great!I'm using a Hotchkis rear sway bar. I haven't had them on the road yet as I'm still busy with a motor swap.

Scratch that, the only Wilwood rear kit that fits my 73 Chall axle flange offset doesn't have any facility for a park brake which Is required for road registration in my state of Australia.
Looks like I'll be sourcing from else where.
Has anyone else had this issue, more to the point, has anyone found a solution to this issue?

SsBC & the Dr Diff kit both have the park brake but will it the rear sway bar if you have one

Most companies us a GM rear caliper because the parking brake is included and very simple to operate.
