    Later model Maverick/Comet disc brakes/spindles will work. Also Ford Granada, Mercury Monarch or Lincoln Versailles assemblies will also bolt right on. Stay away from the later model Granadas that are based on the Fox chassis and have struts. Nothing from a Mustang II will work.

    Like mentioned above 74-77 maverick/comet. 75-80 granada/monarch. Be sure to pick up the outer tie rod ends as well, also the prop valve if you wanna use one.
