F-Body to A-Body?

[Sinister.]

I found a disk brake setup at a nearby junkyard on a 1979 Volare... I'm wondering if they'll work on my '72 Dart without much modification...

Has anybody tried this?

You'll still need the 73-76 A Body UCAs with the large ball joint.

I think there was a Mopar Action article about exactly that swap. If I run across it I will get a copy for you...or you could email Rich Ehrenberg at Mopar Action and ask him nicely...

Or, Google tells me, this is it:

ignore Eboogers fear mongering about the taller F body spindles, its overhyped a lot. It is a very common and safe swap.
You can use the F body set-up...spindles, calipers, backing plates, rotors, even the dist/prop valve, just use the 73 up large balljoint upper control arms OR Dr Diff's balljoint insert adapter.
