Disc Brake Conversion

I have a 1963 f100 unibody and i was wondering if I could put disc brakes on the front without dropping several hundred dollars on a kit. Will the spindles from a later model truck fit my application?

Hey Laker,
You came to the right place. If you do a search of the forum you're sure to find plenty of info. But if I'm correct you can to the articles tab under brake systems, there is in depth article about the subject for straight axles up to '64 f100s. If I'm wrong all the brains on this site will correct me.

Later spindles will not bolt on.

Disc brakes cost money.

Pay up or do without.

Best kit out there is from No Limit Engineering. it being the most complete.
