<font size="+1"><font face="Arial">Now that I am also a Bugeye
owner, I've acquired a whole new set of acquaintances. A guy I
met at the Atlanta British Car Day Show yesterday is interested
in converting his disc wheeled Bugeye fromĀ drum brakes to disc
brakes. All my square body parts cars are disc brake equipped so
I will give him the partsĀ he needs.<br>
<br>
I am sure many of you have done this conversion and can tell us
what parts are needed. My understanding is that the A-arm,
kingpin, axle, steering arm, and tie rod are the same on a drum
brake Bugeye and a disc brake square body and all he needs are
the hub, caliper, and rotor. Can anyone confirm or correct that
understanding? Can you point us to any tech literature/
instructions, etc that will help? Of course, he will rebuild the
calipers, and install new bearings, braided hydraulic hoses,
rotors, and pads.<br>
