1963 buick riviera disc brakes?

[Illmatic505]

Does any one know if there is a disc brake swap for a rivi? I was wondering if early impala spindles are the same on the rivi, because that they are 5x5 bolt pattern. Thanks!!!

Did you ever get anywhere with this?? I have a friend w/ a 64 trying to get a 4 wheel disc set up.

Thanks

I know of one person that put Wilwoods on his 64. He is a member, but does not come here anymore. I will shoot him an email and ask him what he did.

There's a Guy in silverado Cayon (California) who came up with a kit and is selling them. Not sure how to get ahold of him though. I'll see what i can find out

There is a company named Scarebird that sells a disc brake kit for both the front and rear of a 64 Riv. Contact www.scarebird.com
for more info. The kit lets you use factory late model buick &/or cadillac rotors and calipers with Scarebirds' brackets and hardware.
It isn't fancy like the 13" and 14" name brand setups, but it works well and the cost is much less. They also sell the kits on ebay if you want to check them out there.

I recommend using the Summit adjustable proportion valve to dial things in perfectly.
