A 1955-1957 Chevrolet Bel Air/Nomad on its original drums stops the way it did when it was new, which is to say not great by today's standards. This Right Stuff kit converts the Chevrolet Bel Air/Nomad to power 4-wheel disc brakes. Why It's Worth It: 9" booster for power assist. Rear discs end drum fade and adjustment. Application-specific for the 1955-1957 Chevrolet Bel Air/Nomad. Application-specific kit rather than a universal setup. Before You Order: Confirm your lug pattern and that your wheels clear the calipers before ordering. Check firewall and valve cover clearance for the 9" booster. Going to 4-wheel disc changes front/rear bias, so check your proportioning valve setup. Pre-bent TRS brake line kits are available separately to finish the conversion. Bleed the system and bed in the pads after installation.
