Rear disc brakes on the 61

I finally got the rear disc brakes on the 61. I used Lincoln Mark discs as donors in combination with a Rosehill Performance bracket kit. Having the rear end out of the car definately made things much easier. The kit comes with good instructions and there is also a video demonstration available on Ultrastang's website, which I also found very helpful. I did run into one issue...the bracket kit main caliper mounting bracket fit too tight. I could not get them over the axle tube. Glen at Rosehill suggested a little grinding to the bracket and after that everything went straight forward. I recommend this system any day.
