Default Spindle compatability 66 to 85



Can I take the brakes off my 85 Merc Grand Marquies and put them on my 66 Ford Mustang? If so what has to be done?Do I have to buy/fabricate anything? How big of a headache am I looking at?</P>


Thank You</P>

I had an 85 at one time(best riding car I ever had) and contemplated this myself. I'm sure it can be done, but it would take some fabrication of the brake lines, tie-rod holes, and suspension.Tire size/fitment issuesmay arise. Best bet would probably be a kit from SSBC, Wilwood,Etc.....Wish I could be more help here, but that's why I didn't do it.
