Inboard Drum Brakes

I a '75 F250 with rear inboard drum brakes and a Dana 60 rear, 2wd. What is the best way to convert to disc brakes?

Is there a decent option using Ford parts? I'm a bit of a purist......

I'm with you but do realize the dana is not ford exclusive or a ford part for that matter. So it really doesn't matter as long as it works.

There are a number of threads on this forum related to the conversion. You'll have to decide what to do (or not) about the e-brake and I recommend a adjustable proportioning valve.
