Disc brake interchange questions
I went to the junkyard to try and yank some disc brakes but I couldn't find any F100/F150s for the life of me. I found some Bronco's with disc brake setups but I wasn't sure if the setup would interchange. Besides the F100/F150s, what other trucks will interchange the entire front suspension/steering/brakes ?

Re: Disc brake interchange questions
As far as i know broncos are all 4 wheel drives. The 2 wheel drives will only change out with the 73-79 F-100/F-150 trucks for a 1/2 ton suspension.
Unless your looking for 4x4 brakes then you have to wait for somebody else to chime in.

Correct,Ford never built 2wd Bronco's(full size) except a couple of test mules built in the early 90's,and the only trucks for swap are the 73-79 1/2 ton,just be sure to get everything from same truck to make the swap easier.KF100TK wrote:As far as i know broncos are all 4 wheel drives.
