61 Newport Wagon C body Disc conversion Question

Hi folks, I've searched and found a lot of info on 66 on up C body conversions, but where can I get info on converting my 61 Wagon to front disc?

Thanks!

My suggestion would be to see what bearings, races & seals your 61 uses & compare that to later model B & C bodies that you could possibly interchange for disc. From there, scour the Mopar sites & wrecking yards for the parts you cannot buy new, (i.e. spindles with the caliper brackets). Once you find the correct spindle it will come down to buying parts for the appropriate car & year you've chosen.

Yes, and that’s what led me to these forums LOL and I use the search box but I can see nothing for anything under 66 and I’m pretty sure this is different than 66 LOL
