    Can somebody let me know if the spindles and ball joints are a direct swap from a 1977 Lincoln Versailles to my 1972 Grabber? I want to convert my drums to disc. Thanks!

    If I am not mistaken, the granada brakes are the same as the maverick. I would check the part numbers to be sure though.

    Granada brakes are a direct swap. Versailles are very close, can be made to fit, but I think one of the ball joints, the lower if I'm not mistaken, is bigger on the Versailles.
