When my son and I restored his '67 way back when, we found that they all carried the same Chinese junk, so shop by price, and don't forget to include the freight.
Case in point was the tail light gaskets. The ones we got from vendor A were so thick that we couldn't get the screws started. So I bought another set from vendor B. Guess what? The same junk, too thick. So before I bought any more, I asked who the manufacturer was and I found out all were from the same bad molds.
Later!

Thanks for the input.
Funny you should mention it. Before I started this thread, I almost looked at all the saved links I have for old Ford truck parts. Then I realized that wouldn't work...
OK, looks like NPD it is. Thanks for the responses fellas.

Has anyone done a front disc brake conversion on an early mustang? My buddy would like to have discs up front.
I know it'll need a new master cylinder to support front discs/rear drums. I think it's something to do with a proportioning valve, but I'm in the dark here.
Looking at the NPD catalog, there are lots of choices for conversion kits.

These cars have a brake pressure differential (some people call a proportioning) valve mounted on the rear axle.

As you can see, I don't know what I'm doing yet. Which is why I came here with these off topic questions.

Was the swap you did from the Granada an easy installation? I'm wondering from what Bill said above if I can just pull off the front drums and install discs and a new dual M/C.

Yes it was easy. The spindles, rotors and calipers went right on and I used the dual master cylinder. You will need to add a proportioning valve but it was easy. Sorry but in the other post I forgot I did add one when I did this
