DISK BRAKE QUESTION

[MADCIMA]

Hi everybody, I hope to have written in the right section ..... I have this brake kit and I wanted to put it on my coronet 500 68, but from other tread, I find that the caliper is four pistons, this one has only one.
Who can help me to figure out if you can fit in my car?

????????????????????

 

[MADCIMA]

Can not I fit my coronet?

A four piston mounts solid and a single is a floating caliper which means slides on the bracket. You CANNOT just swap the caliper

 

[MADCIMA]

My doubt is that on the workshop manual I see only the four piston pliers, and not this

I used the Dr Diff front disc conversion kit for my 1968 Road Runner. The caliper is similar to yours.

Get part numbers off the spindle and ball joint. It looks like an A-body swap to me. Should work fine. Where did you get this stuff from?

you did what I did , I used those calipers and knuckles from m body car, it fir my belvedere 67
they are from a later car and they work
you need some brake hoses too, I used some gm ones and modified the end to fit they don't rub , I think they were 12 or 14 inches long

The caliper and adapter will work. These are the part numbers off a set I have in my shop. I can't see my spindles or ball joints right now on the car. I installed this stuff a week ago on my B-body, but removed them to install the bigger 11.75" set up. These are A-body swap parts.

I set mine up with rear mounted calipers due to my sway bar. This caused me to need longer brake hose as well. The ones I got were Raybestos BH36830 and 31. They are 16.75" long. These are the ones that require the banjo bolt running through the block at the caliper.

Italy.....why?

I was just curious. I didn't recognize the name and your English was a little different.
Good luck.
