Any issue if they are rear mounted?? ThanksStock was in front sbp
Not '66-72 Kelsey Hayes stuff. The caliper is in the rear on those.Stock was in front sbp
So that either means its an ongoing debate or ....
They should be on a stock setup. I'm not sure you can even mount those in the front. The way they bolt to the lower ball joint would prevent that I think, unless you drilled them out and used different hardware. I don't know for sure.....never saw a reason to try it!Any issue if they are rear mounted?? Thanks
That will make her day!Old age catching up 73-76 up front 65-72 rear. I will let my wife know I was incorrect.
For me Chrysler made it rear mount. Why screw up a good thing. Shorter rubber line, less likely to contact moving suspension parts. Less likely to be struck by road debris.
My advice… do whats best for your own car.

I actually my 73 Scamp had rear mounted calipers. Sure looked to be original and don't know why anyone would have changed them on this car. May have been an early built car, I'd have to check the tag. All of my others 73-up had front mounted.
Lol. Not for the 73+ disks like those, calipers to the front right from the factory.

It was this thing. Looked to be a pretty original un-messed with car. Was a 318 power disc car. I have a pic of the brakes before I removed them but it is trapped in a crashed hard drive. I used the brakes on my green 72 Dart.

When I brought my 68, the previous owner included the disc brake setup. It was all together, upper control arms, spindles, rotors, calipers, one assembly. I put the whole assembly on and the calipers were in the rear. This is how it came from Detroit and it was correct for me.
