This video shows an installation of a front adaptor bracket for Impala. With the exception of the vehicle specific adaptor bracket and bolt pattern, the front installation is the same. The rear installation is similar. The 8 3/4” Mopar rear requires the installation of green bearings on the rear axles. Video features Emily Williams.
Please note that Emily does not wire the lugs together on the rotor assembly. It is highly recommended for this to be done. Please refer to John Hertog’s early tech article when he was working on early Magnum Force prototypes for Wilwood brake installation. Magnum Force has since developed an installation bracket that does not require modifications to the original suspension and steering components.
See John Hertog’s article that describes safety wire thru bolt heads:

1957-62 83/4” Rear End Flanges are completely round and require drilling new holes in the backing plate that has emergency brakes in them. The top of the flange may have to be ground to make room for e-brake mechanism. If you still use the e-brake on the rear of the automatic transmission, you do not have to use the rear e-brakes. If you do use them, then you need the Wilwood e-brake rear cable kit and Lokar universal front cable kit with custom longer length cable. See cable attachment photo. The clevis connector is actually for a Ford Bronco and available from Loker if you have existing rear e-brake cables. For retrofit, you can cut a slot, wedge it open, put cable thru and wedge it together or weld it closed.
