Perfect fit

I installed this kit on my 55 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup with stock front axle. It fit perfectly with new king pins installed at the same time. It also changed the bolt pattern to 5 on 4 3/4 to match the 69 Nova rear axle that I had installed previously. This kit, along with a Speedway dual reservior master cylinder installed under the floorboard, gave us modern disc brakes for safety while keeping the outside appearance stock. The truck will be built with "patina" in mind. I highly recommend this kit to anyone looking to upgrade their 55-59 Chevy/GMC pickup to disc brakes. Pic was taken shortly after dragging the truck home and before any restoration work had been started.

Chevy Brake Kit

The quality of the brake kit was great [...] provided by speedway motors. the cons about the kit is the instructions provided with the kit were poor almost if they wernt there, I read instructions 3 times then once again when the install was finished, It was a guessing game on the first side. second side went faster

Per the Chevrolet parts books, the 1945, 1946, 1947, 1948, and 1949 Chevy 1/2 ton 3100 series all have the exact same spindles, and wheel bearings. All part numbers and casting numbers match. Can you explain in detail why this kit won't fit a 1946 Chevy 1/2 ton 3100 series front spindle?
