Default Did mine on '66 coupe

I got my Granada disk brake kit from Jim's Mustang in El Cajon Ca. It included all new parts except for good used Granada spindles and rebuilt calipers. It was a complete kit. I did have to make a bracket that limited the rearward movement of the brake pedal arm as the actuating rod was not captured in the MC. Cost was about $650 to my door in Houston.

I did put in a power brake booster kit from National parts depot that included another newdual reservoir power brake MC and installation fittings. About $400 to my door.

Also bought to enhance braking was a high tech brake lining kit from Praise Dyno brakes. It included new stronger springs and hard ware for about $250 to my door in Houston for pads, shoes, and hardware.

I did buy the MC twice so I paid $100 too much by doing the upgrades over time, first for standard and later for power. The total was about $1300 the way I did it, but could have been $1200 if I had done it all at once. Good brakes now and stops sure and straight.
