A minor clarification on that tech tip.
It is easy to just unbolt the A arms from a later (65 up) Spridget and 
bolt them to the non disc brake car. The A arms are the same, it's the 
king pins that are different from disc to drum.
So you can use any A arm but you have to use the later king pin set.
It's just a simple swap to pull the A arm off one car complete with king 
pin still attached.
