Try looking on ebay for Steeltech. They sell a kit for just such an application. I found it by looking for rear disc brakes. I need a similar kit for the 65 T-bird 9 inch that is under my 67 Firebird.

yea i found those steeltech brake kits not to bad of a price. i talked to the guys at rad ride by troy trapanier <sp?> and they said i could run 95 imapla sindels which would give me a few more options for the front. all i would have to do is taper the spindel to match the ball joint on the linc.

Why not just redrill the rotors on one of the setups you can find easy enough for the big bearing ends? That would be pretty easy with a drill press and a bolt circle template.
