I want to put disc brakes on the front of my 56 fairlane , saw a kit made by scare bird out of washington state, has anyone used this kit, looks staight forward.  for about $200 less calipers and rotors.

I have a set on my 55 Thunderbird. The install was easy enough, and everything works fine. They did send me the wrong ones first, so I ordered the wrong calipers first. One point that bothered me was the Lincoln rotors are narrower than the drums, so I had to ad a washer to the outside to get the adjustment right. If you go with the Scarebird kit and need Celebrity calipers, let me know, but you'll probably need the same kit I have using Chevy pickup calipers.



Good luck,

Don

Be sure your wheels will accommodate the larger hub center of the Granada discs.
