1967–1972 Chevelle High Performance Power Front & Rear Disc Brake Conversion Kit Product Description Shop 1967–1972 Chevelle front and rear disc brake conversion kit for a stronger, more modern braking setup. Replacing a used Chevelle drum brake system or worn mixed brake setup can improve pedal feel, consistency, and heat control. Order Chevelle power disc brake conversion kit for restoration, street performance, or a complete four-wheel brake upgrade. This system is designed to convert compatible Chevelle applications to front and rear disc brakes while adding power assist. A matched setup helps provide more balanced braking than combining unrelated components. It is a practical upgrade for muscle-car restorations, higher-power builds, and drivers who want improved stopping confidence. Key Features Fits compatible 1967–1972 Chevrolet Chevelle applications Front and rear disc brake conversion Power brake assist Four-wheel braking upgrade Improved heat dissipation compared with drum brakes Helps reduce brake fade during repeated stops Better pedal feel and braking consistency Suitable for restoration and performance builds Includes matched front and rear brake components Designed for factory-style or upgraded hydraulic integration Product Specifications Specification Details Product Type Power Disc Brake Conversion Kit Vehicle Chevrolet Chevelle Model Years 1967–1972 Position Front & Rear Brake Type Disc Assist Type Power Brake Application Restoration / Performance Upgrade Front Components Rotors, Calipers & Brackets Rear Components Rotors, Calipers & Brackets Hydraulic Components Booster / Master Cylinder / Valve, Kit Dependent Why Upgrade to Four-Wheel Disc Brakes? Disc brakes generally manage heat better than traditional drums and can provide more consistent stopping during repeated braking. Adding power assist can also reduce pedal effort and give an older Chevelle a more modern driving feel. A complete front and rear conversion is especially useful for restored cars, upgraded engines, highway driving, and performance-oriented builds

Intended for compatible 1967–1972 Chevrolet Chevelle applications. Confirm whether the vehicle currently has factory drum brakes, front discs, or an existing conversion. Verify front spindle compatibility before ordering. Check rear axle type and flange configuration. Rear-end housing style and axle offset can affect rear brake fitment. Confirm whether your vehicle uses a 10-bolt, 12-bolt, or aftermarket rear axle. Wheel diameter and backspacing must provide adequate caliper clearance. Some high-performance disc kits require 15-inch or larger wheels. Verify rotor diameter before ordering wheels or finalizing fitment. Check booster-to-firewall mounting pattern and pedal linkage. Confirm master-cylinder bore size and proportioning-valve configuration. Manual-transmission cars may require additional clearance checks around clutch linkage. Parking-brake cable compatibility must be verified separately. Existing hard brake lines may require modification or replacement. Vehicles with dropped spindles, tubular control arms, aftermarket axles, or modified suspension may require additional fitment checks. Professional brake installation and system bleeding are strongly recommended.

005Counter questions

Asked about this part

What is this product?
It is a high-performance front and rear power disc brake conversion kit for compatible 1967–1972 Chevrolet Chevelle models.
What does the kit convert?
It converts compatible front and rear brake systems to disc brakes.
What model years does it fit?
It is intended for compatible 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, and 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle applications.
Is this a four-wheel disc brake conversion?
Yes. The kit is designed to provide front and rear disc brakes.
Does it include power brake assist?
Yes. This type of kit includes a power brake booster setup.
Is this suitable for a drum-brake Chevelle?
Yes, if the specific kit matches the vehicle’s spindle, axle, and hydraulic configuration.
Can it replace a front-disc/rear-drum setup?
Yes, on compatible vehicles.
Is this a performance upgrade?
Yes. It is intended for restoration, street performance, and upgraded muscle-car builds.
Will it improve stopping performance?
A properly installed four-wheel disc setup can provide more consistent braking and better heat control than an old drum-brake system.
Does it reduce brake fade?
Disc brakes generally manage repeated-stop heat better than traditional drum brakes.
Does it improve pedal feel?
Power assist and a matched hydraulic system can provide a more modern and consistent pedal feel.
Does it include a proportioning valve?
Many complete kits include a proportioning valve or distribution block.
Are brake hoses included?
Typically yes, but verify the exact package contents.
Are hard brake lines included?
Do not assume so unless specifically listed.
Are parking-brake cables included?
Some kits include them, while others require separate cables.
Are wheel bearings included?
Some kits include bearings and seals for the front hub assemblies.
Are spindle nuts included?
They may be included depending on the kit.
Are mounting bolts included?
A complete conversion kit usually includes the necessary conversion hardware, but verify the supplier listing.
Can incorrect torque cause brake problems?
Yes. Improperly tightened hardware can lead to unsafe conditions.
Do new brakes require a break-in procedure?
Yes. Most pads and rotors benefit from a proper bedding procedure.
What is brake bedding?
It is a controlled series of stops that helps establish an even friction layer between the pads and rotors.
Should I drive aggressively immediately after installation?
No. Complete the recommended bedding procedure first.
Can drilled and slotted rotors be included?
Some high-performance kits use drilled, slotted, or drilled-and-slotted rotors.
Are drilled rotors better for every application?
Not necessarily. Their benefit depends on the specific driving conditions and component quality.
Are slotted rotors useful for performance driving?
They can help manage pad gases and surface contamination in some applications.
Do rear disc brakes need a parking brake?
Street-driven vehicles should retain a functional parking brake.
Does this conversion affect parking-brake operation?
Yes. Rear disc conversions often require compatible parking-brake cables or mechanisms.
Can stock parking-brake cables be reused?
Sometimes, but many kits require conversion-specific cables.
Should brake fluid be replaced during the conversion?
Yes. Fresh fluid is recommended.
What brake fluid should I use?
Use the grade specified by the kit manufacturer and vehicle requirements.
Is this kit suitable for power steering cars?
Yes. Power steering does not normally prevent this type of brake conversion.
Can headers affect booster fitment?
Large headers can affect under-hood clearance in some builds.
Can engine swaps affect booster clearance?
Yes. Engine position, valve covers, and other modifications may create clearance issues.
Does this kit require welding?
Many complete conversion kits are bolt-on, but exact installation requirements should be confirmed.
Can fabrication still be needed?
Yes, especially on modified vehicles.
What is the estimated product weight?
Approximately 120–160 lb depending on rotor size and included components.
What shipping weight should I use?
A practical estimated listing weight is about 170 lb.
Can the kit ship in multiple boxes?
Yes. Large brake conversion kits are often divided into multiple packages.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm the 1967–1972 Chevrolet Chevelle model year, front spindle type, rear axle and flange, wheel diameter and backspacing, booster mounting pattern, pedal configuration, master-cylinder requirements, parking-brake setup, brake-line routing, and any suspension or axle modifications before purchase.
