You need to be more specific. Also, I haven't searched, but I'll bet there are hundreds of threads on disc brakes in this forum.

Havent done link pin, but did ball joint conversions for a customer with the basic EMPI bolt on kit with good results on a 70. There are better kits out there, but this one worked well, was easy to install and inexpensive.
Have not found a need to do one on our own cars yet, but will when I do my 66 mostly because I plan on hammering that car and possibly autocross it.
