Yes, but you need to change the tie rod end. Also, your front geometry will change slightly, so you may introduce some bumpsteer.

right on thanks. There is a guy here that has front breaks off a 68 that will sell the entire set up for $300.
Is this a deal. I have seen new stuff for about $799.

will 68 discs and calipers fit onto my stock 66 spindles? I see kits where you utilize your stock spindles.
I heard that the 68 spindles will limit my turning radius. Is this true if i change the tie rod ends?

You could put Granada, Versailles, or 70-73 Mustang disc brakes on your car, check this link: http://www.mustangsteve.com/tierodbushings.html

Or you could use 94-04 Cobra Brakes or 05-09 Mustang GT brakes, conversion kit at this link: http://www.mustangsteve.com/cobrabrakes.html
