    Hello,

    I have a 72 Maverick I would like to put disk brakes on the front. Can somebody tell me if this can be done and point me in the right direction to get parts and stuff?

    Thanks for your help

    Your easiest and cheapest way is to find a Comet or Maverick in junkyard and get the stuff from them. Disc were available starting in 74 and were standard on all 75-77 cars. Search this sight. There is alot of information here about this swap.

    hey fish- did you look in the classifieds on this site? 2 sets of disc conversion parts here right now!.. the job is easy. i did it last year. kinda time consuming for the first time but easy! would be easier if i had a lift. if the parts i told you about are already sold, be patient. we see these here all the time! good luck!
