73 Disk Brake Caliper Question

[69GT]

I'm installing a set of 73 Duster disk brakes on my 69 Dart and have a question. I'm to the point where my next step is to mount the calipers. Are there supposed to be rubber bushings in the 2 holes on the caliper brackets where they bolts go through that mount them to the spindles?

Are these four piston Bendix ?

No.

There are no "bushings" in caliper mounts for either the slider type, or pin type, disc brake caliper.
If on your conversion, your using the "Pin Type" of caliper, rubber bushings are in the caliper body, on that style of caliper.

Bendix are "B" body, Kelsey Hayes are "A" body, BUDD are "C" body.
And those style calipers, bolt directly to the spindle, itself.
