I've had the wilwood 140-13476 for well over five, maybe ten years. This whole time, I misunderstood the directions and thought I had to remove the spindle and have a machine shop drill for the brackets. Watched your video and was like, what?? So, I went out to the shop, took the left brake off, and what do you know, the bracket went right on. I feel so dumb! I'm glad to see you blocked the rear brake and seen it stopped fine. I've been stopping with I think one drum for years. Went to drive it a few days ago and had zero brakes, pedal went to the floor. I've had a roll control for many years and burnt the rears a long time ago, so I'm prob going to block the rear and just use the fronts till I buy the rear disc kit. Nice video. If only I had realized I misread it, I would've had the disc installed years ago. Sounds bad, but I work every day on other peoples vehicles and just wore out and tired at the end of the day, so I had always just put it off.

I love the noise from under the car followed by a good pull to decide if something needs to be fixed lol

The radio faceplate should go behind the dash. You probably already know this, otherwise, love this build and your content.

“What was that?” “I don’t know” mats the pedal 😂 that was awesome

$849 today is about equivalent to $200 4 years ago, so I'd say they're budget!😄

Great install video Brother! 💯 Can’t wait to see and hear the new cam! 👊🏾

Clean!!!! Those will keep the paint and fenders straight !!

Awesome bro that thing is bad to the bone!!! Did you figure out what that sound was while going down the road I myself left a wrench in the engine bay before and watched it fly around behind me lol🤣

Hell yeah brother. Look great and much safer !

Planning on doing this with my c10 and doing some draggy 60-0 times with both drums and disks

I'm loving this build.. great job.

You are right the brakes do look awesome !

Grey ghost has a perfect stance. Wheels look really good. The brakes are a much needed upgrade specially if you had drums in the front. Love the content great job

Those brakes do look awesome, seem to perform great as well, see ya drum brakes. Can't wait for those engine upgrades. She is going in house perfect.

Beautiful, remember the saying, you buy cheap you buy trice.

Nice! I think that kit is on par and it is a good upper end brand. On the lifter, I have bought new Ford Racing lifters that did the "leak down" thing. Luckily mine clears up after a few seconds. They probably got some trash in them (as shipped)

Disc brakes on the grey ghost was a necessity…. Im with ya on the foxbody brakes … i even kept 4 lug on my drag car …my theory is … once you have all 4 tires sliding the only actual. UPGRADE would be is to add ABS .

Glad to see you getting rid of the old “juice can” brake master !!

Looks and sounds amazing those Willwood brakes set it off. 🔥

I’m so glad you did all that work on the 65 I had a 64 1/2 that was my first car and I love that thing. Thanks for all the videos on that.

Aren't the slots in rotor supposed to go in the other direction? Did directions touch on that?

I did a front disc brake conversion on the 69 Torino GT about 20 years ago.. I was lucky I could use Aussie Ford Falcon disc brake set up bolted straight in.. I retained the same non power boosted master cylinder which still pulls up quite good, a bit of a hard pedal but you get used to it.. Dave

Looks killer

Doing the same wilwood disc conversion on the front of a 55 Tbird next week. I agree when compared to other kits it's actually a better price and a product that I feel has good company backing in the future. Never know when some of the other smaller brands could close up shop.

I got that setup for my 64 fairlane , but with drum in back.. cant wait to put it on. I hate the drums

I’ve been waiting on someone to cover this mod. Thnx

Respectfully, once you have something faster than it's brakes or get serious about racing and want less drag as possible, you'll definitely care about upgrading brakes. That being said, I've only ever needed to upgrade a couple times. For the average guy, who isn't 130+mph 1/4mi it isn't really needed. Unless you're one of those big wheel dorks, oversized heavy wheels with stock brakes is just asking for trouble.

I'm a big fan of you guys I have a 65 Mustang fastback metallic grey with 91 foxbody engine

I was going to run Wilwood on my galaxie but there is some affordable pirate jack kits and that’s what I went with and it was abt $400 cheaper for a manual brake kit with disc conversion

Just when you think it can't get any better a video comes out n proves me wrong 😅

Would 7/8 bore or a 15/16 bore master cylinder have been better?

make sure that the comp cams cam and lifters didn't fail and send a bunch of metal through the engine. we havent messed with anything from them since the 90's and it looks like thier stuff is still junk.

Nice bro

How did that ebay t5 shifter work out for you ?

Nice set up! The brakes look awesome. 👈💯

Just curious, why do you prefer the manual breaks. I just fox swapped an f100 and love the manual breaks. And curious what others think about manual breaks

So if you were to put these type of discs & brakes on a Fox 🦊 will 15 in. Rims be ok 👍 for clearance?

You’re gonna hate to hear this but that master cylinder looks like one I’ve used that is unpainted and will rust

Has anyone else here tried using the Air Duster R-152 refrigerant in their A/C systems ? You can replace R12 with it I know, but what about R-134?

What Master Cylinder are you using?

Could you possibly link the exact disc kit you got? If it’s from CJ’s you gotta get an affiliate link or something 🤣

Sounds like you lost a header bolt.

Who needs brakes 😂

you'd care about big brakes if you had a car doing 150 and then trying to stop.
