I have read through a bunch of different threads and still cant figure out one thing. In order to swap to disc brakes on my 73 scamp do i need new ubj and spindles or do i already have them?

Thanks and sorry for bringing up a subject that has probly already been answered
 
Your 73 should have the correct large balljoint upper control arms already. You likely will need to swap out the drum brake spindles with disc brake spindles.
Of course it does depend on what disc brake swap set-up your going to use. Some aftermarket "kits" use the drum brake spindles. Any all stock parts swap will use the disc spindles.
 
ok thanks. i am going to try and go with oem 11.75 off a different model
 
Does your 73 scamp have SBP Drums? In 73 some Slant 6 Drum brake A Bodies slipped out of the factory with SBP front suspension
If so you will need the BBJ Upper Control Arms and A body Disc brake Spindles
 
My 73 valiant was a small bolt drum car but had the bigger upper ball joint.

How does one tell the difference between a small ball joint and a large one? I have the sbp on my 74 Dart Sport. But I do not know which ball joint I have
