M-body disc brakes on 68 c-body?

[mopardav9]

I parted out an 87 chysler fith avenue with front disc brakes.Does anybody know if spindles will interchange with 68 plymouth sport fury?

Sorry,they will not work.
The geomerty and configuration is different compared to the C's.
The lower control arms,steering knuckles do not interchange
The most popular disc brake conversion is the disc brake set up from the 1973 C bodies which is a direct bolt on deal and you can buy the one piece rotors,pads and calipers dirt cheap..
Hope this helps.

Only if you change all the suspension and steering

I kept everything but control arms.

You need the upper and lower controls arms, center ling, tie rods, Idler, sway bar. The works. When I had a chance to study the front end on Stans car last year, it became apparent they changed allot. But the basic sub frame looks to be the same. They made changes forward of the cross member. Lots of braces and brackets.

Look at it this way. 30 dollar ball joints
