Those look like 1 3/4” shoes, but since you have disc up front, you should have a LBP 7 1/4” rear, and that would use the more common 10x2.5” brakes. Looks like you have a mismatch there.

Yea, but we didn’t inhale…..riiight?

Lots and lots of them did, some even with the large bolt pattern. As for the OP’s question…..yes, the drums are the same. The backing plates however….7 1/4” has only 4 mounting stud holes whereas the 8 3/4” has 5. Yes, you can drill the 5th hole.

And the Budd brakes are only for the big C body cars. If I was looking to get the rotors turned, I would ask around at the local cruise in, somebody always knows somebody that has a lathe to turn them down.

They’re 10”. Look at the difference in the shoe width between yours and BK Cow Gods 9”. Also, a quick look inside and you’ll find that there are no push rods for the wheel cylinders to push out the shoes, 9” had an embossment right on the shoe that sat right on the piston inside the wheel...

Yep, they’re worth some decent money. Sell them with the backing plates and you’ll get north of $100 for them, probably more.

I have a **** ton of large parts to get rid of, but I know the shipping will kill the deal, even if I price em to sell. I guess a swap spot or 2 is on my list at the Nats this year.

I don’t know folks, I like her attitude and approach. And, she’s pretty funny.

11” manual drum brakes on a 6bbl car, no issues. You must’ve done something wrong on the setup.

yep, they are the same master, or at least they look the same. I got mine from a brake only supplier that used to be in Ann Arbor called S&H Brakes. I too questioned whether it was right, but they knew all about the K-H system and assured me it was the correct unit. I don’t know the part number...

I may not be of much help here, but I’m running one that is correct for a 69 Dart with manual disc. You may find that you wouldn’t think it’s the right one because it has the same size bowls for front and back, but for a K-H manual disc setup, it is correct.

no, only 10x1.75”

Yep, they’re worth money. If they’re useable and can still be turned to clean them up, you could get up to $100 for the pair.

I bought and paid for all of my lines from Inline at the Nats last year. The lines were shipped immediately, but they forgot to put the rubber flex lines in the box. It took me 6 weeks, more than 1/2 dozen phone calls and emails sent with pictures of my handwritten invoice from the Nats clearly...

The studs are swedged to the rotor/hub assembly. You need a swedge cutter to do it right. You don’t want to damage the hub, they’re hard to find.

Wanna throw a wrench in the works?? All 64 Cudas also came with 19” radiators, from /6 to V8.

Inline Tube, The Right Stuff Detailing, Fine Lines, all offer pre-bent lines.

Any disc brake setup is an upgrade over drums. Still, 1000’s are still stopping on drums with much success, myself included! It’s worth doing the swap, and if you can afford it, and want to go that way, buy aftermarket. Me, I can do well with factory parts just fine, and would use the factory...

Not without buying aftermarket axles. The A body 8 3/4” small bolt axles have a unique axle offset that is specific to the 1 3/4” wide brakes. The offset is different, the brakes from a B body are wider, have the large bolt pattern on the drums, the center register is larger in the B body so the...

Your existing driveshaft will be about 2” too long, and if you’re running the original trans with the ball and trunnion front coupler, you will need to have your existing driveshaft shortened!

So, here’s the scoop, the 8 3/4” backing plates have 5 bolts to mount to the housing, the 7 1/4”only has 4. There has been word that you can drill the 5th hole and use 7 1/4” backing plates, I don’t believe that’s possible. That assumes that the other 4 bolt holes are in the correct location...

Well, if anybody would know, I would be you! Thanks for clearing that up!!

Are you sure? I thought the early Mustangs had the 4” bolt pattern. Not sure if this, but I’ve heard for years that the Mustang rotors could replace the 2 piece hub and rotor design with some minor machining. I’m sure not everybody has a machine shop at home, but it’s easy to find one that will...

Is there not a Mustang one piece rotor that just needs minor machining to fit as well?

You can’t use your existing 7 1/4” lines, the splitter block is a different configuration. You also can’t use your existing 9” brakes, as the A body small bolt 8 3/4” rear has a unique offset axle flange that will only work with the 1 3/4” with 10” brake setup! The backing plates from the 7 1/4”...

The only time I ordered anything from Rock Auto, I had to send 1/2 the order back. Ordered rear struts and springs for the wife’s car, the struts were alright, the springs were some universal spring that was not tapered like the original and would not seat in the upper mount, it was bigger than...

Hey Jerry, if it’s a small bolt rear you’re doing, they would all be 1 3/4” shoes, same shoes for 7 1/4” and 8 3/4”. Geof

I don’t believe they have manufactured these parts for decades. You will have to search out good used pieces!!

Rock Auto was stocking the calipers for awhile, I'm pretty sure they have the other wear parts as well!!

I believe they came on the LBP 7 1/4" axles of 1973 and up disc brake cars that were ordered with the standard axle, which was the 7 1/4"!
