does anyone know if theres a mopar out there that i can just take the front suspension from, control arms and all and put it under the 57 plymouth to allow for discs with little to no modification? if not the whole suspension then how about the spindles with disc brakes at least? any suggestions? what are you guys doing for this issue?

There are a number of threads on spindles swaps or disc conversion kits.

I read somewhere s (Mopar Muscle)that A body spindles will work for most of your apps. I used AAJ brakes conversion kit . Love it.

There is no Front Sus. that you can just "Bolt in" with disc brakes....It ain't THAT simple....However, the AAJ kit works really well..Beware of the Volare/Aspen Spindles as you have to mod the sus. rather much...

Here's a discussion from another forum:

Seems that the overall width of the wheel mounting surface is the limiting factor.

Try searching for the 5th ave swap. I've really only considered that and AAJ brakes. I'd probably go with AAJ, but if you want options those two are what I would look at first.
