disc brakes

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to convert a 63 econoline to disc brakes in the front? Are there kits available?

Thanks

Yeah this information would be handy. My 64 I'm keeping original, but my Econoline ext3ended cab custom job, I think I will put on Disc brakes.
Almost need to make a Thread for everyone to read and download how and what are the best candiates for putting on Disc brakes.
Oh by the way, can you also e-mail the disc brake conversion too.

THanks Glen

Disk Brakes for my 65 Econo

I never received the instructions and would still like to get them along with a list I read awhile back that listed everything a Falcon and Econoline have in common.
