It's possible if you use 1963 spindles. They use the later brakes, but the earlier link pins.

what i want to do it's to install oldspeed Porsche disc brake kit on my bus. I already have rizzag's 1960 dropped spindles at home, never installed. But if i can put 64-67 dropped spindles on my 1960 bus beam, i will save some $$$. If it's too much work, i will pay more $$$ to have '60 spindles oldspeed Porsche brake kit.

Not all '63 spindles take the late brakes.

If upgrading your beam is in the plans you could order one that will take the '64-'67 arms and you'd be set.
