1970 Mustang Front Brake Spindle Question

[jmarks99]

Will the 1971-1973 Mustang disc brake spindles work on a 1970 Mustang?

Kinda. About the same as a Granada spindle will work on a 65 Mustang. Sorta the same, but there are slight geometry changes. Why?

70 to 73 are identical. Same tie rod end taper and all.

Yes indeed. All are same fit, Geometry, Size, on and on.

The Original 70 Mustang/Cougar/Torino 70 Spindles were DOZA--3108 Driver, 3107 Passenger.

FORD Made a Tweek in the Spindle somewhere (Haven't found it yet), then numbered these D1ZA Spindles--Same as side.

No, there were no Torino Spindle numbers , As DOOA 3107, 3108, or D1OA 3107, or 3108.

Ford used the Z (Mustang on all 70-73 Mustang, all 70-71 Torino, Montego, Falcon.

Hope this helps.

Thanks all. I can get a full setup spindles, discs, calipers, backing plates for my 70 Coupe under $100 off a 72 that is local. Just hope they are 5 lug.

All 71 cars should be 5 lug.
