Is there a front disc brake conversion kit available for 1957 Ford cars?. Over time I've seen incomplete info on cobbling together parts thru salvage yards & auto parts stores but nothing comprehensive in the way of a reasonably complete kit of new parts.. Recently I found one outfit, Classic Brakes in Texas that listed a kit, but an e mail went unanswered & afterwards I read there return policy, which includes a 20% restocking charge & in store credit only policy, which nixs doing any business with them. Has anybody found a satisfactory kit elsewhere?.  Thanks

I wasn't questioning your experience, just why. I think the answer lies in the odd spacer to move the wheels out, and the small calipers. Add in out of tolerance cheap replacements. If that was to fit 14" wheels, I've seen similar results on other OT cars with factory calipers off much small lighter cars for wheel clearance reasons. I guess because they can cobble up a kit that "fits" doesn't make it an improvement.
