Post subject:  Discs & 5 on 4.5 axles for 66 Val wagon

I have a '66 Valiant wagon and would like to add disc brakes and custom wheels. The stock wheels have 5 on 4" bolt circles. I would like add 14x7 wheels with 5 on 4.5" bolt circles. Are there axles that I can swap out from another car? If not, how about an entire rear end? What car(s) can I get the discs and axles (or rear end) from and what parts do I need?

Thanks,
Gary

Any big bolt pattern A-body rear end will do the trick. These started in 1973, mostly on V8 cars.

Moser also sells "conversion axles" and can also redrill bolt patterns if needed.
