47-59 Chevy Pickup Disc Brakes

1947-59 Six-Lug Complete Power Disc Brake Kit
click to enlarge Our 6-lug disc brake kit contains all you'll need to put modern discs on your stock 1/2 ton spindles, and uses your stock hub. The 1-1/4" thick, 12" rotor uses a GM full-floating caliper. The 8" single diaphragm booster master cylinder and proportioning valve mounts in the stock location. Drilled/slotted rotors optional.
Note: We recommend that you upgrade the stock ball bearings to tapered roller bearings when using this kit. Some stock wheels may rub the caliper, it may be necessary to use a spacer (kits come with one pair of spacers). May not work with some stock wheels. Also, 1947-50 trucks may need to drill out lower spindle hole from 7/16" to 1/2". Frame mount brake boosters may require #CP9424 transmission mount.

1947-59 Roller Bearing Conversion Kit
click to enlarge Convert your original ball bearings to modern tapered roller bearings. Tapered bearings disperse heat better and can deal with today’s grooved roads and modern wheels and tires much better than the original ball type. Highly recommended for use with our 6-lug disc brake conversion kit.
