The Downey kit seems like a good way to do it. It uses factory pieces with custom mounts. I like that they offer a version that retains the e-brake as well since no e-brake means an automatic off the road if you get stopped for an inspection here in Ontario.

talk to seth. he used some GM calipers off i think a later model eldorado caddy. and he made some brackets. thats a pretty common caliper in rear disc kits.

I used rear rotors from an 85 SVO and front calipers from a 79 Monte Carlo. I had templates for brackets I made on my computer after so many people asked, but I recently lost them to the reformat. If I make more I will try to create a template again, or have a lot of them laser cut.

Hit me up. I have a friend who has brackets he is looking to sell that were made off of a Downey kit. It includes all hardware and a parts list to complete it. I think he wants 100 bux for it all and he has a couple of sets.

Hit me up. My friend still has some of the brackets he is looking to sell. Cheaper than Downey and uses the same stuff.
