72 vs 72 front disc brake line q's

[HHStang]

Anyone know what the difference in the brake lines are? The catalogue shows a mid 72 change. Thanks!

Cool Car, I own a 72 small block one myself. There are a few items that changed mid to late 72. Check your fenders on top with hood open where the ruber stops are located and the underside of hood. The first 2 digits will be the month and the 3rd will be the ex. 1 for 71 etc. I recently had to do this for a powerstering hose. I imagine you don't have a plate on your radiator niether. The dates should be relatively close together if parts haven't been changed. A local mustang shop might help as well.

Thanks. That won't help though. No tags anywhere and I grabbed the spindles and disc set up from a parts car I had. I may just buy a set and see what happens.

I vaguely recall encountering this issue a long time ago. Though at that time I think I was buying them through NAPA. Darn if I can recall what the difference was.
I see Mustangs Unlimited only lists one style available for 71-73 all (F78073 & F78074 @ $50 ea.).
Same story at Virginia Classic Mustang, but much better price (BK-141R & BK-141L @ $33 ea.)
and at NPD (though my catalog is a bit dated 2004) (2078-6 & 2078-7 @ $50 ea.)

What catalog are you looking at?

O.T.:
Wecome to the forum 72 fastback, I see you're right here in CT. I'm in Old Saybrook

OT

...Its geat to see parts finally becoming available for these cars.

Yeah, it's about time. Especially for those critical parts like inner & outer rear wheel wells. How long have you had your 72? Have you posted pics of it on the forum yet?
