[WANTED] 8-1/4" LBP drum rear axle + LBP front disc conversion parts (MIAMI)

[cudak888]

Title pretty much says all.

I'm trying to find a good, used 8-1/4" LBP drum brake A-body rear end for a disc brake conversion - but I'd like to stay in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale Florida area.

Don't want anything fancy - this is for a bone-stock '69 Valiant 100 with a 225. I realize that I will have to shorten the driveshaft (but if you've got one that's compatible with the 8-1/4" pumpkin and 108" wheelbase, I'm game).

Also trying to source front disc conversion parts for the same car, again, LBP. If '73-up style with the calipers up front, I'll also need the swaybar.

Would be great if I could find all the parts locally. PM if you have anything.

Best,

-Kurt

Would this be the complete control arm/spindle/caliper? Let me know. Won't be near a phone until later today, but will give you a call.

Incidentally, any chance that you'd ship the parts? Tampa Bay is a bit farther than I expected to drive (particularly when it seems as if the most reliable car I own will soon be that 4-wheel-drum Valiant).

Have these, (upper A arms) but have already sold the spindles, rotors, and calipers. Clean lowers and strut rods, too.

I have a 73 A body MP suregrip 3.21 8 1/4 drum to drum with less than 10K miles since overhaul. Everything except the gear set and axles was replaced. Unit is a good one, I'm upgrading to a B body 8 3/4 in a few weeks and will put it up for sale after the swap. PM me if interested, I'm 2 hours away in Melbourne FL.
