I know a guy with a 1976 Plymouth valiant 4Dr with front BBp disk brakes will this fit a 1973 /6 duster if so do I need the upper/lower control arms of the disk brake car.

Ps: the 76 car is a 4Dr /6

You,ll need just the UCA,spindles,calipers and rotors(if good?)and the proportioning valve.You could also use the master cylinder if good.
 
so if i get it all i can put spindles in my control arms

Better get the upper control arms to just in case. I hear differnt stories about 73 and later cars

Most agree all the 73 later disk brake cars have the big ball joint. However I read here some of the 73 later drum brake cars may still have small upper ball joints used in them.

Bottom arms will be fine but you will need the correct lower ball joints for the new spindle off the donor car. Or even better a new one form a auto parts store for the year of the donor car.

You want as much as you can get off the donor car and don't loose any bolts or parts the little stuff can be hard to find.
