I used a kit for the Dodge that used Volare/Aspen rotors and GM calipers. It needed no fabrication. The tie-rod ends should be no problem. I just wanted get an idea of what I would be getting into because the wife would have a fit if I had another 'project' going on for too long. Thanks.

Shorten the tie rod ends by altering them, takes a little time. Also, you may have to grind off some of the 'stop' on each side. What set up did you use on your 49 Dodge?? and if you did that, then you can do the 60 Windsor.
