Front Disc Brake conversion success
 
Just a PSA about front disc brake conversion.
I had a bit of a time sourcing a kit that would work with my stock 15" smoothies. Everything seemed to note "will not work with stock wheels".
I ended up getting the RPUI "Right Stuff" kit- part number TDC 6326 with stock height spindles. Although a tad pricey, the rotors and calipers seem to fit perfectly inside the stock wheels. Looks like solid well built equipment too. Just got to figure the brake lines out now!

Cheers,

Thanks for including the part numbers! Is it this $1200 model? :scared:

Think the only difference is the booster/master color. If you use the discount code they give it came down to $950. The parts are heavily built and you get nice timken bearings, etc.
