Brad

Got a pic of the width of these babies then? Might use them somewhat soon.

B

Of what rotor? 73 C=Body that I'm using now is 1.250 thick. But keep in mind I'm also using the 73 C-Body spindle. Cass has a kit that uses C-Body rotors but 71-72 I think? on a e-body spindle I think too?

Thanks I'll take some measurements!

Just add to what Brad said. Cass sells a c body kit for e body spindles and a separate kit that adapts 73-75 a body drum spindles on 73 c body rotors that fit Challengers. That kit has a small sleeve to adapt the larger diameter race of the c body outer bearing to the a body spindle. No issues with the large inner bearing.

I think Rockauto.com has Timken.

Okay, if that's the case...Do they make a "stock" size drilled and slotted rotor the has a hub as well that would fit a standard 70-74 E Body ? If they do, that would be cool

I have stock size drilled and slotted Baer rotors. Got them from AutoAnything in Cali. $175 a pair when I bought them but have since gone up to about $300. Free shipping.

what is your experience with them? and what pads are you using? i will be having drilled and slotted in the front and drums in the back.

I use bendix ceramic pads from Summit. LAA66 pointed me at them. Quite happy with their performance.

did you see a big difference using drilled and slotted rotors and those pads from stock? just trying to see if its worth the upgrade

Happy with braking power. 440 in the nose and it stops well. Biggest difference imo is less fade.
