Disk brakes........

5L Pony · 05-18-2000, 09:40 AM

A friend of mine has a '71 Torino GT with 4 wheel drum manual brakes. He wants to convert it to front wheel disc and power brakes. Does anyone know what other car we can take the parts off of? Brake booster? Front spindles? Master cylinder? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I believe 68-71 Torino's,LTD II and Lincoln's of the same years will work. But dont take my word for it,call the junk yard as they have the cross over manuals. Hope this helps. One other thing.Ive heard several different stories on using or not using the proportion valve from the donor. Find this out for sure. Hope this helps.
