Rear disc brake conversion???/ Cab mount ???

What do I need, and where do I find the parts to convert a 73 F100 to rear disc brakes

and...........

I saw somewhere that there are bolt on front cab mounts available for a 73 F100? Anybody know where.

I know where to get stock ones, but not the bolt ons.

Thanks

The front cab mounts on the 73s were bolt ons the later 78-79 mounts riveted on dont know about 76-77 , they are the same mount just the 73 had to be bolted on as the frame is boxed in that area and there is no acess to the inside.

For rear discs, do a search, this has been discussed several times in this forum and the brake forum. Just a couple weeks ago a user was showing how he used frontend parts and made his own rear discs.

SA comment of the day:

When you search... Don't type in the words "2 questions" to find anything about Rear discs in the search title window.

This shows the importance of wording the title with ....the topic in it
