    Hello,

    I would like to convert my drums to disc, and while I wait for a disc brake 9 inch to come around, I was going to find parts to make up a disc front end. Time is limited now so I thought about a wilwood disc brake kit with new calipers, disc, spindles, master cylinder, etc. However, I only see them posted for mustangs and other ford cars, NO MAVERICKS! Do you know of a decent kit that is COMPLETE for under 800$?

    Also

    Where is everybody getting the chin spoilers for mavericks? I cant find them anywhere and I want one!!!

    Mike

    The spoilers come from MAS racing,Your just a few mins from me if You want to stop by and see two of them up close. One on the car and one ready to install on the other car. Lets see now Redwood City to Foster City,should take less then 15 mins.

    The best way to get disk in the frount is to find a mav or comet or even a granada with frount disk and take everything spindles calipers rotors, lines, ect. If you can do everything your self i would say it will cost you from 100 to 200, i paid 50 the spindles everything else, i put new pad calipers and hoses on for around 75 and gave a friend 10 bucks if he would machine the rotors.
