Mass Buy: Front Disc Conversion Dana 30 & 44

[raleigh_bronco]

Guys,

I'm going to work on a front disc brake kit. Is there any interest in a mass buy? What price do you expect for the complete kit; banjo bolts, spindles, backing plates, brgs., hoses, loaded calipers, master cylinders, proportioning valves, etc...??? I saw a kit that went for $455 last week without cylinder and prop. valves. Who would be interested? How much?

 

[ken75ranger]

My guess 375-400.

 

[lonesouth]

I'm in for 300

 

[JCBronco74]

I have been looking at that kit too. But not sure if I can come up with the cash right now. To bad.

 

[Labbster]

I'm interested if the price is right

 

[yak67]

Raleigh your awesome for doing this. I'd say $350-400. I want to commit, but not sure yet. I would need to know the final price before I did. Let me know.

thanks,
Tim

I may be interested. Sounds like a good xmas present for my dad's 1970 with the D30 front end. Post the final details and price for late comers to join in.

 

[Bronco Sport]

Drop us a line on the final price. I might be able to swing it if the price is right.

 

[JFX]

I'm in if it can be done for around $400.00 shipped.

4 bills shipped I'd be in too!
I notice his 44 kit has a buy it now for just under $200, but I don't think it has as much stuff.

THis is basically the chevy conversion. Which is a good conversion. I ran it on my 30 and swapped it ove to my 44 when i put it in.

One thing I will say, is go ahead and change your bearings when you install this.

And good luck, disc brakes rock!

I'm interested if the price is right. I think that $350 range sounded good. Is this a personal guy or is it a business?

 

[cigar_pirate]

sounds good

I am in if you can get the kit, plus master cylinder. plus shipping 450.00. Call me @ 940-594-3088 once you get it put together to arrange payment.

 

[Mark in Memphis]

I'm interested. $400 shipped sounds about right to me.

 

[69Sport]

I would be interested if we could get it for $400 shipped. Can any one else chime in on the quailty of this kit. Would this be a deal to jump on. Thanks 69sport

Now I have to wonder, I'm seeing people say, 250, 300, 400 shipped. He sells them for "buy it now" 185. Why would you pay
a lot more than what he's asking? Also this kit is far from a
complete kit, you do need other items to make it work.
Just curious.

I stand corrected, he has more than one style of conversions,
my bad.

Guys,

I have been in discussions with the disc brake guy on ebay, who only has 2 negative responses and those were basically bogus. Here is a mass buy where we get to tell the vendor what we think is a fair price for his products!!! These types of buys RARELY come along, if ever. I only need 2 other participants to commit for this to be a 'go', but will take everyone that definitely wants to participate. This mass buy is immediate for the first 2 guys that sign up, and for those that straggle with your decision there will be a delayed mass buy order placed in the near future. So, lets discuss what we think should be a fair price for the following kit: (He'll also add the master cylinder & proportional valve if interested). By the way, this kit is currently for sale on Ebay and it has been bidded up to $455.00

--------------------------------------------------------------
This front Disc Brake Kit works great on any Bronco, 66-75. It is ready to bolt on, and easier and cheaper to do than some other kits which involves changing your knuckles, ball joints and tie rods. Your Bronco's stock front wheel bearings, spindle nuts and lock-out hubs will all work with this kit. ALSO, you can install this Disc Kit on a dana 30, and if you up grade to a dana 44 you can just transfer it over!

This auction is offered with 2 new take-off Spindles, the bearing surfaces are in excellent condition. Also included are 2 new take-off Caliper Mounts. This Disc Kit now comes with Steel Braided brake hoses, D.O.T. certified. THIS SET INCLUDES: Easy to follow INSTRUCTION Guide, 2 Brand NEW precision machined & balanced HUB&ROTORS, made in USA, 5x5.5 stock bolt pattern with new bearing races factory installed, and 2 factory-rebuilt, 100% tested CALIPERS with all new parts including new pistons, and 2 take-off CALIPER MOUNTS, and 2 new take-off SPINDLES (Dana/Spicer), and a new set of Semi-Metallic Disc Brake PADS, and 2 new Steel Braided BRAKE HOSES, and 4 new caliper GUIDE PINS, 2 new BANJO BOLTS w/crush washers, 12 Spindle MOUNTING BOLTS and Lock Washers, assorted hardware, 1 can of PREMIUM disc brake Grease, and all new OIL SEALS.

REMEMBER, with this Kit you do NOT need to change your Knuckles, Ball Joints and Tie Rods. This Disc Conversion Kit comes complete with All the necessary Hardware and Instructions. Let me know if you have any questions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

I would say that $300-$400 is too much to pay for these parts. The only parts you can't find at a place like autozone are the spindles, caliper brackets and brake lines and you could get those for about $100-$150 total used. I would say if this kit were under $250 it would be worth it.
