Disc brake swap

Post by mudbogtom »

Will the disc brakes swap easily from a 73 Torino/Ranchero to a 68 Comet?

Thanks
Tom

The 73 Torino has a full frame and your 68 Comet has a unitized body with high shock towers. The Torino changed from a unitized body to a full frame in 1972. The 73 Torino has a conventional front end similar to a Ford LTD. To answer you question no, a 73 Torinos disc brakes will not work on your 68 Comet.
