I've seen several references to Granada spindles. I'm gathering parts to rebuild the front end as soon as cruising season is over, and disk brakes are on the table. Do the spindles require any reworking to fit the Tbird ball joints? Are there any part numbers available for the rest of the disk brake components? What's the recommended master cylinder setup with the disks? I've also seen some references to Lincoln Versailles spindles, but not much hard info.
