Hey everyone,

Just finished replacing my rear drum brakes yesterday and all went well, However I ended up with a question on the front brakes... A previous owner put discs on, however I have no idea who the manufacturer of these are. anyone have any ideas or have the same setup? pads and rotors seem to have plenty of life left, but I want to make sure I'm prepared for when I do need to replace them. Looks to be a four piston setup.

Any help would be much appreciated!
 
If that is your Duster, they are probably the original brakes. Rotors and pads are available, even hi-performance aftermarket alternatives, thanks to the fact that Mustangs also used these calipers.

Are those Big Bolt Pattern rotors? I was looking around last night and it seems the bbp have the studs built in to the rotor and small bolt pattern are on the hub?

FYI
Those pictured are 65-72 small bolt pattern, two piece rotors.
Rotors & hub assemblies.
Two piece, 70-72 B & E body rotors are too big, and DO NOT fit, work, on A Body 65-72 spindles.
Wheel studs are what hold the two pieces together, rotor & hub.

Ahh ok, understood. Is it possible to keep these calipers and switch to the 4.5 bolt pattern? Rear is already an 8.75 with the larger bolt pattern and would like to have the front match for getting wheels...

Read the "sticky" at the top of the brake forum page, on how to use machined, Ford Mustang rotors on the Mopars.
Then people report wheel fitment problems, with the center hub register, being to big of a diameter.
