My buddy at a wrecking yard cut the front end off a 71 Dart for me.Disk brakes, motor and trans..... Will the disk brakes work on my wifes 63 Valiant? Also, would I use the 63 dcenterlink, or all the 71 stuff? Thanks for the info guys.....You Rock!! Andrew/Kidd |

I don't remember on the upper control arms on that one, but you'll be using the stock center link, the '67 up are the 'wide bodies' compared to your car.... be prepared to pay $$$ if you have to recondition parts on those K-H brakes... -D.Idiot |

The upper control arms and spindles bolt right on. You have to keep your early center link and steering linkage. I hope your friend got you the master cylinder and proportioning valve too. Was the '71 power brake? It's likely that it was. My wife's '72 Duster had those brakes and they were boosted. |

I am assuming he got the MC, and perp valve.....the MC I can rebuy, but the perp valve will be a wrecking yard piece if I need it......but they cut the whole front clip w/ a torch, so I hope it all is there.hell, I think it has tires on it....I will call him in the am.Thanks for the help!! Andrew |

They bolt on but those earlier brakes can be a pain to deal with. Most people toss them and go with the later model BBP brakes. |
