hi all, I started on my disc conversion today, it all went well, except when i drove out the old wheel studs to install the new ones, A couple the new ones didnt seem to tighten up in the hub, they pressed in easy.. but wobble a little bit, I am not sure how to fix this? any ideas?

this is the items listed on the www.scarebird.com web site.

simple and easy

you might try replacing those studs that don't pop back in with new ones, as they will lose a good bit of their "teeth" being banged in/out/in. I had to do this with my rears, but on my fronts my conversion kit from a 72 already had studs

Looks good though! That's a cool 68 you got there! I am partial

how much did it cost you with all the parts to convert over to the disks?
