What brakes do i need to order?

[408Swinger]

I am looking to order a drilled and slotted street breaks kit from willwood, but need to know what the part number is. I have a '70 dart swinger that was originally a 318 automatic with what looks to be the stock disc set-up. Attached is a pic of my passanger side steering arm and spindle. Any knowledge on this would be much appreciated

I went to Moparts.com and it said the B-body disc and drum set-ups were the same in 70. Then i went to Wilwood's website. They only show 8" or 10" drum applications, but the B-body shows the disc set-up with part number 140-2726-BD . Does anyone know if this is the correct part number?

Did you have the small bolt pattern wheels or the newer 4.5 bolt circle?

 

[408Swinger]

Yes, 4.5 bolt circle.

 

[Purple Haze]

That means you have the newer spindles 73-76.

Got the breaks. They are going on the car this week. Thanks again Purple Haze.

FYI……. You can't turn drilled and slotted rotors. They are a one time deal then go in the trash.

I realize that. Thanks for the heads up though. The nice thing about the Wilwoods is tou can replace just the rotor. So it really wouldnt be that horrible expensive to replace them. And i need to be able to slow my car down. i was frying my old breaks.
