I used to have the info on what parts would be required to put disc brakes from a later A-body on my 66 Dart, and I have the spindles, upper control arms, and rotors, I think they are off a Duster. Do the factory lower control arms from the Dart stay? Or something else? I haven't worked on the car for about 11 years now, and don't remember what I used to know.:???:
 
Your Dart lower control arms stay. You will also need calipers, a master cylinder, and a proportioning valve from a disk brake car.
 
dont forget the 1973-'74 style of Lower ball joint. Youll need that so that itll work with your centerlink. [the 1975-'76 ball joint is different and will not work with your centerlink] If you dont have the bolts to mount the lower ball joints, I believe they are the same as the 80's Dodge pickups [maybe 90's too]. Do not use hardware store bolts to mount your ball joints.
 
disk LBJ has 9/16 bolt holes, Drum had 1/2. You can drill them out, use slowest speed possible on drill and plenty of cutting oil.
