Skate And Destroy
OK gang, I am looking to change the front brakes on my Duster from the current 10" drums to disc. I have small bolt Centerlines on there which I really like so I decided I was going to stay with the 4" bolt pattern.
I have read and re-read all I could about front disc swaps. I've done them before but I never knew that the '73-up spindles change track width. I really like the look and stance of my car as it is and didn't want it to change even just a little.
So I went out and scored a set of 67-72 Kelsey Hayes disc brake spindles. Now, I know I can get the OE cast iron calipers and parts from a few sources but I want to save weight. I have been looking at the SSBC aluminum replacement calipers. I can not, however for the life of me figure out exactly which ones I need.
I believe there are two versions, one is sort of like a 'race' version and the other is a 'stock replacement' deal.
Does anyone have a part # for their aluminum direct bolt-in replacement caliper?
I also plan to use the OE-type rotors from Rock Auto.
Thanks for any info.
