Now Im getting somewhere. Is that an 11 inch disc size?

It seems that these calipers I have are from a 1973 Cuda. I was unaware that they could bolt up to a A body spindle. Any thoughts........

So this looks correct?

Yeah, I get the picture now........but why are there shorter pins? I have seen them? I guess I need to look under some mopars the next chance I get. I just couldnt recall seeing anyones pins sticking out like mine do.

I think the light bulb just went off!!!!! I assumed when I tighten them that the pin was stationary. I am wrapping my brain around it now. I think I need to stop listening to chevy owners when they notice the bolt side of the pins sticking out and say you better fix that. Thanks

Yes on the pin side, but the bolt side is stationary. It is screwed in tight

I drew a line across these to show how far they stick out from the caliper

It seems to me that the head of the bolt should rest firmly against the back of the caliper. Every one that I have looked at the bolts sit flush. The set that I have are the correct pin length but the bolt part seems to long to me.

Some photos of my brakes. If you notice on the pic with the brake hanging, look at the back and you will see the pins are out about an inch when tightened.

The pins look just like the photo above posted by grumpuscreature. They stick out almost an inch when installed. I need a shorter one. I find them for sale everywhere for B bodies but no A bodies. I will post a pic though when I get home. Thanks

Those look exactly like the ones I have but they are about an inch to long. I can find this type everywhere but not the shorter ones.

The Caliper bolts/Pins on my a body stick out almost an inch to far when they are tight. They measure about 5 inches long from under the bolt head to the end. It seems I need some that are around 4-1/8 long. I can not find them anywhere. These are the bolts that the caliper slides the pads back...

Im thinking I must have the larger and they are pushing my rim out towrads the wheel lip. I sure could use that extra space.

Guess i should have measured before I posted. I will go home and measure and get back to ya. Thanks

I am currently trying to fit wheels for my 72 dart Swinger and I dont seem to be able to fit the same size rims and BS as other folks. i am wondering if this can be due to the type of drums I have. can someone educate me on the different sizes they made? I have a 8 inch rim with 4.5 back spacing...

Thanks so much!!!!

Old man mopar... My push rod is frim and not able to move. It just seems to long because my brake pedal is riding so high. There is no slack in the pedal. Its good and firm. Unless there is another way to adjust the height of the pedal I believe I have the wrong rod installed. Thanks fro the...

Homecloned....did you find that it was the wrong push rod? Do you know where to buy one? Cant seem to find them.

I was blind. Sprayed the bottom of the car with lizzard skin and for the life of me I could not see that slit between the floor pan and frame with everything blacked out. DUH! Thanks so much.

Thanks folks for the info. This gives me a good starting point.

I am installing a new e brake cable and can not figure out where it crosses the frame???? I see how it exits the fire wall and travels down on top of the frame, but there is no exit to the other side of the frame so that its heading towards the hole in which it mounts. Unless I am blind, I think...

I installed a 4 speed and 73 disc brakes in my 1972 swinger and my brake pedal is in the sky. Im asumming i have the wrong push rod installed and that is what is causing my brake pedal to sit so high. Does anyone know what the correct length of this rod should be ?????
