Bridog Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I am wanting to convert my 1959 Buick Lesabre (4419) from drum brakes to disc brakes. I have all original brakes which includes a treadle vac master cylinder. Does anyone know where I can find a supplier who offers this conversion package.. thanks, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old-tank Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 SIMILAR DISCUSSION If the original finned aluminum brake drums are still serviceable you will gain little on a conversion to disc brakes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Roth Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Your LeSabre has an excellent brake design and execution. Despite current "wisdom", you might do well to maintain and service your current system and enjoy the car the way that it was designed. That is only my opinion, but based upon real world experience. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
