Interesting music choice this time. Thanks for sharing the knowledge of the brake swap.

[@AlfsMustangGarage]

Good morning! I just want you to know that I really appreciate what you're doing to help get the younger generation hooked on these classic cars. I fear the day when all the good old guys are gone and the younger generation haven't filled their shoes. So thank you from Alf's Mustang Garage.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Much appreciated Alf

[@gungfuriceboy]

love a GREAT Brake Wilwood Disc System!...Safety 1st!! cheers from Canada!

[@tedburke1035]

JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL. AWESOME TO SEE A YOUNG PERSON CARRYING ON THE TRADITION. 2 DIMPLES ON THE REAR HOUSING USUALLY MEANS 8". GOOD LUCK AND HOPE TO SEE MORE OF YOUR STUFF.

[@limey2899]

Great car....i have a 65 fastback in England...it must be great to have your stuff so easily shipped....delivery to the UK is a killer!

[@tacarmy88]

Only videos I’m excited to see when they pop up

[@kageger]

Cant wait for your next vid on the stang! I recently got my own 66 mustang. Absolutely lovin it!

[@yamahaxs6501]

the 'stang is coming along so well. Four wheel discs will be great.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks!

[@AndyKruseChannel]

This is great Ben! I'm looking forward to the install and how it performs as it will help with my Mustang project!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Right on!

[@dogsense3773]

I did did brakes in rear of my 67 cougar, hand brake is useless now and there is NO different in brakes I live by San Francisco and with these hills this city is the real test for brakes my friends, but they look cool! SSBC kit ,did a lot of part changes in engine compartment two different master cylinders much brakes lines two brake bos but a wildwood master helped a lot, brakes are on the hard side, thanks! P.S I'm a retired mechanic too and you better know how to bend brake lines if not you'll be in trouble!

[@GlitchMaster0001]

I did the wilwood rear disc install on my car! Big difference once the car is on 4 wheel discs brakes!

[@bubot17]

I'm looking forward to the results 👍👍

[@FourSpeedFilms]

You and me both!

[@JaredR1996]

Thinking about Wilwood brakes in the future for my C10. Thanks for the vid Ben

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Cool!

[@cooperbrosracing]

im in the UK and just in the process of shipping a 65 Coupe over , really enjoy your videos , keep up the good work :)

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@noahblanks2580]

I was Litterally looking up videos this morning about doing this to my 66. Thank you for this!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Very cool

[@amx19733]

Another great video!!!!

[@TheChiefJudgeDredd]

Just did this to my 66 World of a difference!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Good to hear!

[@frankrivera2289]

Great videos!! I used a 8.8 axle from a ford Explorer..cant beat it for the $$$, disc brakes, 3.73 gears, 31 spline axles. posi traction. On the 65-66 Mustangs you will have to cut down the long axle side. I have a 67 so no mods where needed another than welding in new spring perchjes.

[@shelbykingnfs7216]

Always happy to see a new upload in my feed. Love your work Ben!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@jamiemineer4879]

My first car was ‘67 mustang this same color That’s back when they still 2nd hand cars It was cool to drive

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Awesome!

[@ORGANIZEDCoNfUsioN]

Man you are going to love them. I had 4 wheel drums on my Chevy and put disks on the front, so much better. Would love to do the rear some time. Looking forward to the next video!!!!

[@erwinsantos3800]

One of the best upgrades you can do. Did the same on my 67’. What are you doing with the emergency brake. Are you going to be going with the Wilwood one as well? If so, please do a video on it as well.

[@ConemantheBarbarian]

I really like your car. The vintage road race vibe is very cool. Oh and I had to download your closing song to my phone playlist too. 😀

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks! Very cool

[@kyleforeman4543]

[@FourSpeedFilms]

[@tompreciado863]

Wow, really getting that car all hooked up. I’m sure the brakes are going to feel great after the rear break install. Can’t wait for the next video

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Much appreciated

[@MikeLaRock88]

Dude, how the heck do you not have a 100k subs yet? This channel is awesome. I'm going to share that Rambo Vette video, try and help you get a few more

[@FourSpeedFilms]

I appreciate your support!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Great vid!!!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks!

[@johnclemans7802]

Very nice & informative video! I have the rear Wildwood brakes ready to go on n my 65 Fastback. I have Currie 9" for the rear end. And a Strange carrier assembly with 3.70's. My fastback is dark green metallic as well. Same style wheels for now. I'm looking to put a set of 16"x8 Vintage Wheel Works on it, Hope all goes well with your install!! Wondering what master cylinder you are going to use, from Wildwood?? And proportioning valve. I had the old school Granada front brakes and a Lincoln Versailles rear end in the car previously. Your 65 looks and sounds great! Keep up your cool videos!

[@duncandmcgrath6290]

Good job man 👍we gotta get you a rack kit too.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

That would be cool

[@johnmiller4852]

Super helpful

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Great

[@toddbob55]

Very cool

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks Todd!

[@thathobbyguy6774]

Hello! I was wondering what kind of front bumper/apron you have on your Mustang

[@toddclark332]

That's going to make it really nice and some really cool stopping power buddy well you and your dad nobody have a great day man take it easy later

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks!

[@NickDowner]

Awesome! Super helpful! I'm about to order a Wilwood kit myself so perfect timing 😀 I can't wait for that install video

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lawrencet.mcguilicutty7447]

Looks great,

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Much appreciated

[@juanherrera5095]

Love the progress ! I have a 66 and I just order a rear disc brakes kit too 🤔

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Nice!!

[@stangatic6621]

Love watching your videos! I would suggest that you just get some cut to length HD axles to replace those old 8" axles especially if you plan on putting some racing slicks on the back!

[@lemonke1576]

Awesome video as always. Was just wondering about doing this on my own '65; I installed a rear SSBC kit years ago that has been a huge pain in the butt. Parking brake doesn't work, braking power is poor, etc. This will definitely guide me in my process!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks!

[@johnclemans7802]

If I recall the parking brake on the Wildwood rear discs is integrated into the assembly. It simplifies the set up.

[@lemonke1576]

@@johnclemans7802 Good info, thanks. Needa find a kit that'll work with as few problems as possible lol

[@johnclemans7802]

@@lemonke1576 I agree with you in terms of getting the correct parts/hardware. There's nothing like being in the middle of a project and having the incorrect parts and/or hardware!! I went with Wildwood because of quality and good reputation. Plus Wildwood is about 45 minute drive from my home.

[@Jagerbug74]

good video! When you measure the pitch between holes with a vernier caliper, as long as the holes are the same size you can use the internal calipers (on top) to the outer edges then take off the diameter off of one of the holes (much more accurate) hope this helps? cheers Jason

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks for the info!

[@melodiesaremi9543]

Nice!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks😘

[@todddresing5453]

Ben…when are you going to finish the brakes on the Mustang??

[@terrymott8581]

You have some killer contacts for these type projects and sponsors. Long Live Four Speed Films! You could always drive a later model 'stang but why?

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks! I appreciate all the support!

[@frankgonzalez6872]

What rear sway bar kit are using in rear

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Maybe from national parts depot? Or cj pony parts. It’s an over diff away bar

[@joncalon6014]

Can anyone tell me the wheels and tire combo he's running? Looks good on the 65

[@2-old-Forthischet]

When it comes to these kinds of mods, a long range assessment of your goals for the car really helps. By that, I mean, is this your daily driver? Do you plan to keep this car "forever and ever"? These kinds of questions may help you determine how far you may want to go. If it is a "forever" car, personally, I would save up some more and get a 9" rear end. If not a "forever" car, you're young yet so minimize the damage to your wallet. Believe me, I speak from experience.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

True!

[@2-old-Forthischet]

@@FourSpeedFilms but after thinking about it, you may have your father's genes! I myself get bored with "projects" after about 7 years. Happy motoring!

[@2840angel]

What the kit part number

[@michaelrodriguez2502]

First comment lets goooooo!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks for the support brother

[@michaelrodriguez2502]

Thanks for being a great teacher! Got myself a 66 mustang and working on doing wilwood disc brake conversion this is a great help!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Cool! Just make sure to take your time and to do everything correctly! If it’s dialed in you’ll be so impressed

[@jeandelmond8654]

👍👍👍🤘

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks!

[@richardporter4281]

Still waiting on part 2

[@martinmetz8985]

[@LaDaveNCLa]

That wasn't a backing plate you cut off. It's an axle retainer. Good job on the measuring .

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks and yes sir

[@blhaxx4708]

Subtitulooooos porfavorrrrr 😫

[@FourSpeedFilms]

I need to hire someone haha

[@joewillis3740]

Just get a Lincoln Versailles rear end... You're welcome

[@francboss6912]

If you are changing bearings, why spend time cutting of backing plate, just saying.
