Its time to start working on brakes and suspension. The car stops fine but it could use new rotors, bearings, seals and pads. I purchased the pads off ebay to try and save a few pennies. I had the wheels off a few times during the motor build but never really paid close attention. Anyway, when I received the pads they just dont look right. One set is large and the other rather tiny.

These are for a 4 lug wheel. Can anyone tell if they are correct for my 1970 application. At least recognize if they are realtively the right size and shape. I will take wheels off soon enough but my neighbor has my jack and he is gone for a few days.

Thanks

No. The uppers are something else entirely. The lower ones "might" be fronts, but it's hard to tell without measurements. I'm afraid you haven't saved a lot of money after all ........................

Yeah Cpt I do believe you are correct. I knew something was wrong when I opened the box and saw that it was from Summit Racing. I buy tons of stuff there for my Camaro but not the 914. I need to take a trip to the UPS Store.
