Another Disk Brake Conversion Question

[AValiant69]

I have a 69 valiant and wanted to know if any one can confirm I can swap spindles, Brake, ect. from a 78 Volare.

Yes with the right upper A arms.

Although there are articles online that say the attach points are the same and it will bolt together, there are also those who went with it and later complained of bump steer issues.
I suggest you wait for serveral replies from those who actually drive on F,M,J brakes under their A.

I only put FMJ stuff on my cars anymore.

It'll fit just fine. And bonus, it might even have 11.75" disks on it. :thumbup:

Here's another article that actually went into an analysis of the changes with the FMJ stuff. Short story is, you won't notice. Longer story is, even if you do notice, the positive changes outweigh the negative ones.

I run FMJ spindles on my Duster (and 11.75" rotors), no issues whatsoever.
