I’m sure someone has done this. Is it a bolt on conversion or were there any complications? I have a 65 Coronet and a 79 parts car with disc brakes. Just curious before I go tearing in to them.
Thanks

Those 11" Cordoba brakes will not clear 14" wheels.

Not running 14” wheels so that won’t be a problem.

The cordoba knuckles will bolt on, but they are a little bit taller than the stock ones. Some people think that using them is OK, but others don't. Do your own research if it concerns you. 73 to 76 A body and 73 and 74 E body disc knuckles are the same height as the ones on your 65, and the cordoba brakes will fit them. The short knuckles are also available new from Dr diff.
