What parts do I need to switch to the bigger discs on my 69 rr,I already did the swap from a 76 duster. Car doesn't stop as good as it did with drums thought maybe bigger discs would help.I've tried different masters,the only thing I didn't change was my distubution block,but I put on a adjustible on brake brakes.Looking for ideas? THANKS EDDIE B

Naturally, you will be needing the 11 3/4 inch rotors, and the "taller" caliper mount brackets. Whatever type caliper you are using, the pin type, or slider type, will determine what brackets you need.

drums require a lower line pressure to operate than discs...my dad once told me that drums "self energize" meaning that as the shoe grabs the drum, they rotate a little, which pushes them into the drum harder...could this be why they need lower pressures?
when you changed masters, did you change the size, or simply buy a new one of the same size?
