Donor truck help

I have a 66 f100 and have found a 85 f150 am curious if anyone knows if the disc brakes from it can be bolted on to mine the same as the 73-79 trucks can. Any help would be appreciated.

1980 and later is not the same!

You need the disc brakes from: 1973/79 F100 2WD & 1975/79 F150 2WD

Thanks that's what I thought. What about a body swap on to the 85? Would that be a feasible idea or too much modifying?

You can probably make it happen but it will not be a bolt on.
