Re: disc brakes - caution, another long read with part numbers and prices




Steve, 

I hear ya on this part! Here's a link to my 64 Polara convertible right after I did the swap on it in August.

The pics there show exactly what happens when you use the cheapo Advance Auto brake holddown hardware. I replaced it all with TWO sets of NAPA parts. No more climbing calipers...

"One note from personal experience - get good quality (read that Made in USA) 
caliper hold-down hardware. Only a couple bucks more than imported stuff 
that I have had problems with in the past - consider the prospect of the 
caliper jumping up out of the bracket over bumps. Not cool. "
