spindels for a 1965 falcon

[Mark65falcon]

I want to convert the 4 lug to 5 lugs and all of the front suspension in My 1965 falcon. would I be able to take this stuff out of a mustang, if so what years would fit it?

Mark, this information has been covered in scores of post on this board. The information remains the same with ever posting:

All parts used on the 64-66 Mustang V-8 front end EXCEPT the centerlink are a direct interchange to the 65 Falcon.

You will need the correct 65 Falcon V-8 centerlink because the Mustang's is too long for a Falcon. The correct part can be obtained through vendors listed/displaying on this board.

Depending on the diameter of the output shaft on your steering box you may have to replace it if you can not find a steering arm, they are out there.

do you know if any later model mustangs would fit it?

If they weren't mentioned then they don't fit...

Late model Mustangs have a completely different design front end. noting in common with early Falcons or Mustangs.

I am also trying to convert my 65 falcon to 5 lug. I bought a 1973 comet parts car for drivetrain and was wondering if the spindles would fit? Im pretty shure they are the same as the granada but looking for a second answer just to be shure.

But I have a question. I am pretty sure the spindles are pretty close or exactly the same as the granada and will fit my falcon, but im not sure. Can you help me out!!!




The spindles are the same between Maverick/Comet and Granada.
