Disk brake conversion

[chekm8]

Reposting this in it's correct place! ;)

I have a 69 Malibu that's setup for strip racing and I'll be slowly converting it to a pro-touring setup.

I just purchased some old disk brakes that came off a 71 cutlass and I'll be putting them in soon.

My question is, what else should I do while I'm in there? swaybar? new suspension?

Will it be easier to upgrade something else at the same time or can I wait without having to remove the same things again?

Right now it handles just a bit better than a 40' sailboat and doesn't stop as well.

Alright welcome to the site!
Well I guess everyone eles is being shy, Dennis may still be sleeping.
Brake swap, spindles are off. Not too difficult to remove and rebush the arms...beware of spring. A chain and bolt can be your friend.
Hotchkis links and bushings for the sway bar.Hell might as well get a Hotchkis hollow bar since you have it off.
Springs and shocks will be off might as well go with Koni's(street/track) or Edelbrock IAS (for street) and Edelbrock springs too.
Well damn now we are really into it...check out the group purchase going on with Hotchkis. Full TVS kit maybe in order.
Sailboat yeah i've been there, last week infact. Go out an find a 2 turn box out of a 70-81 Camaro and use your old pitman arm...no more sailboat. :cheers:

now for the rear suspension.......
