Got the brackets from beebani Thursday, and I finnally got it on, today, everything work out great, everything went like clockwork, it took me couple of hours but took I my time, doing it right. Great feel on the brakes now, and I think I am gonna stay with the same Master Cylinder (3/4) for now. Next will be the rear probably in a couple of months............

I would say about 110% better, I was just sick of adjusting it every six months and would not get it right, it's either pull to the right or left, and the traffic around here are just crazy, I have been looking around for a while now on trying to get a disc brake on the front, but it's either cost an arm and leg or you have to fabricate something........I am so glad that I run into this site. I am so stoke to drive it down the road on my first test. I felt I have a different truck. Thanks to Beebani's hard work.....

 

The next thing is upgrade the steering a bit........

I am new at this site, and I was wondering if any possibility that I could just purchase the brackets, for my '73 Datsun 620? It's been difficult to keep the drum brakes adjusting it properly.

 

 

hey do you want steel or aluminum to use pathfinder calipers or 300zx 4 piston aluminum calipers i make both brackets here in socal

go to the previous page and find the first post in the thread by Beebani....then contact him. :)

 

Thanks, I PM him and I also contacted the guy who sells the kit.

 

Question, It seems some late 77 620s came with disc brakes. Rockauto.com sells the parts, could I just use those (rotor, caliper, etc.)? If so what would all be required? I opened a thread about this specifically:

Any help would be... well... helpful. Thanks in advance.
