Hendog 10 Report post Posted May 26, 2008 Has anyone put the rear end out of a 70's lincoln versailes into a 69 stang for the purpose of the disc brakes. Was it a direct bolt in, I've heard they're the same rear end. Any comments an that, pros and cons. What other cars had the same rear end w/disc brakes? Seems like that might be a cheaper way to get rear disc brakes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S code 69 13 Report post Posted May 26, 2008 Aren't those coil spring on the rear? I guess cutting the mounts off and welding perches wouldn't be a big deal. they're 3/4" narrower according to my info. if I wasn't staying all stock I'd check it out myself.

EastYorkStang 63 Report post Posted May 26, 2008 I just finished doing it. If you are doing it just for the brakes you'd be better off buying a rear disc kit. There are various ones to choose from. I needed to upgrade to a 9" rear axle at the time. It bolted in without any real hassles. The disc brakes were a bonus. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
