Actually all you need is the spindles...thats what allows you to add the granada discs. the granada discs will not bolt to your spindles. buy a set of spindles on ebay the go down to your local parts store and buy the wear products. look at this site

Okay thanks. I don't know brakes at all. I read up on those sites though and let the eBay listing go.

If you dont trust used brakes theres a place here in texas that has the Granada swap all new parts for 550 or somthing like that, Check the FAQ. I know here a while back Soaring got in touch with the guy who runs it, If the deal still goes I believe you have to mention MustangForums and also get a group rate or somthing. That seemed a little steep to me as well since im surrounded by salvage yards.

CSRP is the place youre thinking of- I think. 550 for new EVERYTHING is a steal. By the time you buy 2 rotors, 2 calipers, pads, master, hoses and whatever else is worn out plus the initial cost, you can easily be up to 500.

Dennis wanted 575.00 a month or so ago. Thatwas a cash deal. If you use a credit card add 15 bux or so. Not sure how much shipping would cost though. I guess it would depend on where you live. Get hold of Dennis and ask him.

$600.00? Yikes. That sounds kinda steep. All totaled, my Granada swap cost about 250.00.

I have a set of spindles and backing plates off of a 76 Monarch that Iamgoing to list on Ebay. The guy at the boneyard wanted 200 bucks for the entire setup, but I took off the worn rotors, calipers, and bearings and he only wanted 80.00 for that setup.

I'm a purist. Granada parts belong on a Granada. Mustang on a Mustang, etc.
I'd invest in a conversion kit that uses Boss Mustang spindles and rotors, backing plates, etc. There are a number of vendors that have kits. I'd stay away from the GM
kits. Replacment parts are readily available and cheap, but GM parts on a Mustang? Sacrilegious.
