Hello all, I just started a restoration on a 1972 Grabber. As you know it has 4 wheel drum breaks. I found a guy local that has a complete set of disks, calipers, gravel sheald and new master with boost off a 1975 Granada. He claims these will bolt on without mods to the car. Is he correct in his saying they will fit. If so is $350 reasonable?
Yes, Granada disc brakes are a direct swap. You may need to swap outer tie rods due to a different taper. Doubt the booster will fit. As far as price it depends if the rotors and the calipers are usable. Here is a site that sells new conversion kits http://www.discbrakeswap.com/
Very common and easy swap I had all Granada equipment on my own Maverick until I switched over to the Mustang II type front end
I would have to look in the garage to be sure how complete everything is but I know for sure I have the Granada spindles with the bolt on steering arms and the dust shields - the new11 inch 5 lug rotors I bought for them are now on my MII spindles but are cheap and available anywhere - I think I have rebuilt calipers and new pads w/ mounting hardware for them too - maybe bearings too
:Handshake sorry your thread got off topic... does the caliper brackets come with them? the master and booster is ????? Frank
Sorry we got your thread off topic - to help get it back on track, I won't even answer the last question - that ought to help
Thanks for all the prompt replies. Here is what I get. I believe the booster is from the Granada. The Prop valve appears to be there
Saw that on CL the other day. $350 seemed high to me.. but others would know better. Welcome to the board from Raleigh!
