Ford Drum to Disc brakes
By Francisco - 06/17/2004 10:35:22 AM; IP 12.23.184.3
Hi.....I am helping my son change the front drum brakes on his 1968 Galaxie to front disc brakes from a 1977 LTD. ['68 Galaxie had drum front/drum rear; LTD had disc front/drum rear]. We changed the spindles, all the steering arms, all brake lines the cluster block with the differential switch and proportioning valve etc from the LTD but we bought a new manual powered dual master cylinder for a 1968 Galaxie Disc front drum rear. When it came to attaching the lines from the master cylinder to the cluster block because of the fitting sizes we had to reverse the lines and use the forward most (secondary cylinder) for the front discs and the primary cylinder for the rear brakes. My question is will I need to reflare those two fittings and change them around or will the front brakes work okay off the secondary cylinder and the rear brakes work off the primary?



Thank you very much. Sincerely, Francisco
