TSMFG is producing a 1965-1972 front disc brake kit that utilizes your existing drum brake spindles. You don't have to swap your frontend out for a 1973-1979 frontend now using this kit. Thought I would send this out for anyone who might be interested http://www.tsmmfg.com/1502.htm. (Single or dual caliper)

good info, I have seen this company before when looking for rear disc and they look like they have good stuff. I am seriously thinking of getting their rear disc kit. Anyways, I am confused with this though, are they for 1/2 ton, 3/4 ton or all? It does not say.

I would highly recommend these guys to anyone wanting to do a disc brake upgrade to their trucks. Bought the rear brake kit myself for the 70 and I was extremely impressed with the kits quality and price. I talked with Skip from TSMFG today at length and found him to be quite knowledgeable on the subject of Ford trucks.He has built 20 Ford trucks in his time and his first vehicle was a 1967 Ranger he ordered from Ford with bucket seats and console. He traded it 4 years later for a Camper Special (a move he deeply regrets) and so it is only fitting that his latest project would be a 67 Ranger clone with bucket seats and console, he loves the 67's! Skip also drifts in a 1980's F150 powered by a 427 side oiler (slated for the 67) with over 700hp out in Cal. and this guys 58 years old!

Give Skip a call I think you will be as impressed as I was.

I got and installed the rear disk brake kit from TSMFG for my 1967 F-100 with a dana 60 rear end and love it. I had to make some slight modifications since I had to buy one for a large bearing 9" rearend, but other than that they work great!! I also found Skip very help and informative.
