    I may have posted this before, but it is worth a second look.
    Check out the "Big brake upgrade for Granada spindles" by
    daveoxide on the Vintage Mustang Forum.

    I just went to the search forum on Vintage Mustang Forum and searched "big brake upgrade for Granada spindles".
    You might have to join the forum, but it is worth it.

    T.L., thank you for providing the link. I am not very computer savvy. I hope you found the article interesting.

    Thanks,

    I found it very interesting, and I would do it if my stock front discs weren't practically new.
    My 17-inch wheels would clear the 12.5" rotors, and I would go with the 13.2" if they clear...
