This is a question for you guys who have converted your '65 and older Falcons to disk brakes, whether you use the Granada, Mustang, Maverick or after market. This would not pertain to '66 and newer cars because there is a substantial difference in the frame structure.
1: Did your turning radius change? How much? Shorter or longer.
2. What parts did you use? Another Ford or after market?
3. Will misalignment of caster and camber affect the steering radius? I will also ask this in the tech forum. This is important to know, because I have not had my front end aligned since changing everything around and I don't want to go through the alignment if I decide I have to change some things. I do have the toe in set very close and the car seems to track down the road decently and there is no noticeable tire wear after a couple hundred miles. I measured the tread today.

The reason I'm asking this is because when I changed to the '73 Mustang disk brakes my steering radius changed drastically. It takes a couple of attempts to park in places where it shouldn't. I have to make a long arc when turning in town. It was like this even before I installed the R and P.

I'm thinking there must be a significant difference in the steering arms on the spindles, but can't seem to figure it out. There is nothing binding and they swing very close to the stops.

Any constructive help would be very much appreciated.
