Thanks for all the replys. Yes, I am going to convert to discs.
Yes, mine is a stock V-8 -260
So, from what I gather, I should just use my original spindles and start the conversion from there up. Correct?

That's what I would do, just give Dan a call at Chockostang and be done.

fwiw, this is the route I was going to take until I priced out all the other suspension work I was going to upgrade. Still can't figure out why someone would want to replace mustang spindles with granada spindles with the geometry issues it created. There is a lot of debate on this point and it primarily comes down to one thing, at least from what I could find, cost. You might save $100 changing spindles but its not worth the problems you'll create and when you're done buying the bumpsteer kit you're right back up there in cost.

In the end I decided to bite the bullet and just do a full coil over in the front with power r&p and big brakes.
