the only concern is if the calipers mount on the front or back. That is really only a concern if you have a sway bar, otherwise doesn't really matter. I like this kit because it has the Upper control arms. Original upper control arms that are not bent are getting pretty hard to find these...

they all offer free shipping on all the different kits even the one that includes rotors, so how does that save on shipping ??

I don't plan to run the car very hard at all. the standard 11 inch factory rotors should be plenty.

the more I am reading ….this one seems like an all around good kit Right Stuff MDC66SD: Front Disc Brake Conversion 1960-76 Mopar A-Body (Barracuda/Dart/Duster/Valiant) | JEGS

so I am shopping around for a disk brake kit for a 63 Valiant and I notice Wilwood has four piston kits. They seem a bit fancy for what I am going to use the car for but with a coupon some of their kits are comparably priced to some other kits out there. So far the ram man seems to be the best...

this is not a dumb question and very useful thread ....I had the same question. I am upgrading my 68 coronet to a dana so I put the original 8 3/4 in a 74 duster so I am running into the same exact thing. thanks for asking the question and thanks for the reply :)

they will suspect when they have their O.E. mopar calipers on back order for two weeks and you get yours by walking into a parts store and walking out ten minutes later with parts in hand :D

actually I was just reading closer and they do have a B-body set up that fits 14 inch wheels but its a medium duty set up but I don't like the fact the rotor center hole has to be enlarged on a lathe......the heavy duty set up is looking better and just use dog dishes on 15 inch cop wheels or...

The kit for my coronet actually uses ford rotors and late model dodge truck calipers which is not bad. ...... only thing I don't like is that it will restrict me to 15 inch wheels only. I don't like that because i wanted to use the original deluxe wheel covers......14 inchers ....doh'

Well at first I thought the same thing but these toyots and gm parts are going to be available for a long time coming. ..... say you take a long road trip on the old route 66 and you start having problems and a caliper is leaking. Roll into a decent sized town find an advance auto parts or...

interesting ...I will be watching this thread. I was thinking of using scarebird on my coronet ....A b-body seems easier to convert than an A because its already big bolt pattern but I was skeptical so I would love to see how this turns out...

is it a good idea to show your name and address in public view of the net .....jus sayin

that would be my guess ....my 72 swinger did the same thing and it turned out to be a strut rod bushing was missing on one side so it only did it when braking and not on take off. I would look at suspension because mine did the same thing and I have a manual trans so I would doubt it has...

wow your up so early ...is there ever a time that your not a click away ...starting to think you live in the server on a little cot :joker:

cant find the article online but looks like you need the dec.2012 issue of mopar action .....it says on the cover something about anti lock brakes.

if you jack the front end off the ground, do the wheels turn freely?

do you have the right proportioning valve installed?

well ....the customer is always right. in a strange way, im kinda glad most of my cars have been plain jane low option cars ....less stuff to break. I have never had an A-body with power steering or power brakes and most have been 3 speed manual. all the power stuff is great when its...

I have never had power brakes on any of my cars, but you should have no problem whatsoever with manual brakes.....that's all I have ever had on an A-body with no problem and I am probably half your size.....I have had power on a B-body and I thought it was kinda scary because if the engine dies...

I have manual drums and on a 68 dart and they work fine ...even when I have gone to Denver in heavy traffic, they did well. if your going to have drums then drive the car like you have drums.....too many people drive old drum brake cars like they are new Hondas and that is where they get in...

exactly ....you might be thinking of C-bodies.....i used to build C boats and there is a difference between manual and power pedal .....but in A-bodies ....no difference
