as mentioned i have a51 merc iwant to have my front hubs machined to a ford car bolt pattern for my mags not atruck big stud pattern does any one know what disc rotors i could use i was thinking maybe afull size crown vic or grang marquis possible newer mustang rotors and calipers any ideas would greatly be appreciated yours dj

 

i would check to see if anyone offers a kit to convert it to disc brakes. by the time you add up machining, refurbishing and cobbleing together a bunch of mis matched parts and try to get them to work, a kit if offered would end up being a lot cheaper and easier to do.

someone will probably chime in if a kit is offered as these were pretty popular years of trucks. check with some of the major online vendoers like LMC, Dennis Carpenter, etc as they might offer a kit for this year truck.
