So I am trying to compile a list of all the cars
(and there corresponding YEARS),
that can "give up"
their DISC brakes to the 57-58 (59?) fords...

(And which ones also "give up" dropped spindles!)

I think just about EVERYONE
in the know has heard about the 75-80 Granada,
But I would like to know about ANY others!

I've heard:

-early 80's S-10 P/U's work...?
(And give about a 2-3 inch drop)

And...
-72-79 Torino's
-72-79 Montego's
-72-79 LTDII
-72-79 Ranchero's
-74-79 Cougar's
- 74-79 T-bird's

Also WORK?

But I have no idea,
what needs to be done to get them to fit,
Or if there is any "drop" involved....
So if YOU know,

Fill me in!

Thanks!

I know for one thing that the chassis of the '74-76 T-Bird shared the Mark IV chassis...different from the '77-79's, if that makes any difference. '77-79 Cougars, T-Birds and LTD II's were all the same chassis, started by the Torino, in '72...
