My conversion package was designed to retrofit the early TG's that employed the same disk brake system as the drum Lehman kits. At that time, they were still using the 4-bolt Ford Fox bodied hubs/axles....Pinto, Mustang, Thunderbird...etc. All one had to do was remove the drum system and install my conversion system over the same hubs. It would work exactly the same way by removing the junky disk brakes on the early TG's. I DO NOT know what bolt pettern (hub) MOCO is using now. Could be a 5-bolt pattern, I just have not kept up with it. It's not rocket science no matter what you do, the hot-rod gang converts about anything to disk brakes and this situation is no different.
You need to first determine what your bolt-pattern is. If it's a 4 x 4.25....my system will work. If it's other than that, I could easily design a system that will work using modified automobile rotors, but I'm not in the trike bsiness (per say) any longer. I'm not motivated to do it, as I no longer have a trike and don't know-or-ride with anyone that has a recent model TG.
