One of this winter's projects - I hope

Hi everyone.

I'm hoping to change over the front end on our Falcon( Comet next) to the "Granada/Comet disc brake" front suspension.

I know there are lots of sites online and lots of posts on H.A.M.B. regarding what spindle/ rotor/ caliper/ etc  to use but I was really hoping someone here has first hand experience on doing this job, that could share what they've learned.

There seems to be a wide range of opinion on what works and what doesn't so if you've done the swap I'd like to hear about it.

Also, does anyone have a link to a good Ford/Merc suspension parts list?

Thanks, Randy

There should be a kits available. Just order one up, all the parts and instructions will be in it. No guessing or modifying. Easy peasy.

Scarebird should sell the mounting brackets and they can usually tell you which components finish the job. I have found them helpful over the phone.

I put Granada spindles on a 56 Ford. All that was needed is reaming the lower hole out with a 7 degree reamer. Just don't take too much material.
Not sure how close a 56 Ford is compared to a Comet/Falcon.
