I am in the process of converting the front of my 72 Duster to disk brakes. I purchased the kit from MP and followed the instuctions, However, the calipers mount on the front rather than the back side and now the brake hoses are too short.
What would you do? Dis-assemble and change the left and right spindles so they mount on the back or get new hoses? Does it make a huge difference as to the caliper mounting front or back or is it just a preference. While getting longer hoses may be easier - if you were doing it - what would you do...?
Am I over-looking something else?
Thanks,
 
If it were me... swap sides and call it a day...

This topic comes up from time to time, but at the end of the day it's personal preference and/or whether or not you have sway bars that will interfere with the caliper if it's out front...
 
Not any Noticeable difference between front and rear mount. I'd just swap the spindles like player1 said.
