I documented a C3 (JL-8 4 wheel disc brake) conversion kit on my '66 Chief. Easy peasy Japaneese. I'd rather create a system from all GM parts than just go out and "buy" a kit. But that's me......

I found a post by you on another b body site last night, so you need the 2 of everything Front the right side? Does that include calipers?
Well my 2 cents
When I restored my Beaumont I purchased all my power brake components through The Right Stuff.
When I purchased through The Right Stuff, I simply selected the car , model and year for my application.
SO I selected 1967 Chevelle A Body car, and at the time I had a GM 12 bolt in the car, then I selected everything from the power booster, master cylinder , portioning valve, front rotors calipers and pads were a unit, along with spindles and bearings.
The rear assembly was really nice it came with calipers and brackets that bolt to the diff flanges , which is exactly like seventy 2plus2 stated are the same brackets for the 10 bolt, which I also have.
The E-brake set up is spring tensioned right on the caliper bracket, really works well. I believe this arrangement is from one of the larger buick or olds lines ?
Good luck with your conversion.

If you are interested, PM me and I'll go into detail for all that is required for a fully functional C3 4 piston 4 wheel disc brake conversion. Very easy to do for anyone mechanically inclined.

Is it possible for you to post a link to the thread you refer to above for your '66 Chief?
