    Cuda Brakes
    « on: July 21, 2005 - 07:40:51 PM »
    I am doing a conversion to disk brakes on my 70 Cuda and the calipers are not lining up properly.

    Can someone send me a picture of a disk brake set-up from both the interior and the outside.
    A link to a useful "how to" would be good as well.

    Appreciate it.

    Hi,

    Disk brake pin calipers, aftermarket.

    Main problem is the that brake line, where it connects to the caliper, is jambed up against the suspension.

    You may need to swap spindles left to right to reverse the caliper for clearance
