has anyone tried those add-on brakes

I'm converting the front breaks of my 58 ford, from drum to disk, I know about the Monark , montego, or torino, spindles, Yea, try to find em at a decent price.....I found a URL that makes a bracket that bolts onto the original spindles, which allow you to use ford Ranger rotors and chev S-10 pads, the rotors are 10.25" (big enough?????) At $150, for the set.....any thoughts on them things?????Thanks also does anybody know where i can get a set of bushings for the front suspension.......

yes it was scarebird, I'm wondering if the 10" rotor will be sufficient.. It seems cheaper in the long run, cuz with the monarck and others of the late 70' I would assume the rotors and cal. would be getting hard to find. That and there NOT a direct bolt up, More $$$ to set them up right......
