74 Duster Wheel/Brake Qs

Prine said

Small Bolt Pattern supposedly Ended in 1972.

73+ A-bodies all got 5x4.5

The rear drum on a /6 7.25 car, should be....10.5"? Does that sound right?

I am usually drawn to 73' Darts Dusters and Dart Sports because of the:

Big Bolt Pattern
Electronic Ignition
and Single Piston Big Disc Brakes

I sure do like my 70 Swinger though...:toothy10:

basicly a bodys only having small bolt patern in disc brakes, ended in 72. They continues to have small bolt pattern 73 on up but you could upgrade to disc brakes and get the large bolt pattern. My 74 duster came from the factory with small bolt pattern as did my buddys 75 duster and 73 dart. All cars started getting electronic ignition in 72

disc brakes must of started being standard in 78 not 76 like i said before correct me if im wrong.

10.5 sounds right, all i can remember for sure is that the brake shoe surface is 2.5 inches

hope this helps
