Brakes from an 82 Mustang?

Hey I have a 67 Fairlane 500 and were wondering if the brakes, suspension, or steering would work from an '82 Mustang??

Sure, but it would have to be grafted on like a Mustang II kit more than likely.... Why bother when disc brake swaps are plentiful.

82 brakes suck big time . I have one and had to upgrade substantially , by the time you were done chopping and welding it would be better to buy the conversion

Good points, thanks. The reason I ask was because my bro was getting an 82 mustang for extremely cheap which had a 351W he was planning to use in the Fairlane, as well as the brakes if they would work.

What is the best budget setup for disk brakes on Fairlanes? The Granada swap?
