Old chev van sraight axle, discs ???

Hello tonite. I am putting a chevy van axle in my 55 Chevy 2dr. I have info that Chevelle hubs fit, but that is it. What Chevelle, and disc brakes.. anybody.??? thanks, Lloyd

 

Would love this info as well- i've got a 65 G10 Chevy Van axle in my Falcon g***er. The G10 sites haven't been much help.....

i have been told that the drums are the same as the chevelle/camaro....

 

Whats the name of the junkyard cross reference book HOLLANDER or something like that.

It should tell you everything that you need ..

Or I could be way off base on that!

Its late and I'm just trying to help ,so don't shoot me.
(as I duck and run)

 

Hollander books won't give you that info.
They will tell you what year, make and model used the same part.

 

I didn't mind doing some searching for ya'll as I was curious about this also..... with a little luck I found this big ole thread. Its a long one but I am sure you will find it helpful

Thanks for the info,

I should have known that !

 

Thanx a bunch! Happy Holidays to you and yours! -rick

 

hey thanks Memph, that is such good info, right down to part numbers.... You might see the 55 Chevy next year, I am just north of Bellingham, Wa.

 

Hope this helps, My buddy just converted his '66 Chevelle to disc front brakes...He told me he used all '78 Monte Carlos front end stuff, a direct bolt in...Who knew?

 

I certainly hope I do see it, with any luck you might see a 64 Nova wagon with its nose up too
