66 monaco disc brake conversion

[monaco]

I'm in the process of converting my 66 monaco from drum to disk. I picked up a front disk brake setup off a 73 new yorker. The question I have is what ball joints tie rods etc should I use? Can I use the original 66 drum setup or go with a 73 setup?

If I recall correctly, it's just the spindle out that gets changed. Lordy, I converted mine almost 30 years ago now when I stop to add it up. That means, don't quote my answer as gospel!!!!!

They use the same joints. If yours are still good just pop the uppers and unbolt the lowers from the spindle and R/R the spindles.

Thanks guys. I want to replace everything so I will just get the original 66 monaco drum parts and just replace the spindle.
