Hello - looking for opinions --and info --- are all 70-76 rear rotors the same ???
are all trailing arms the same ??? - are all the rear calipers the same ?? - I have a 914 race car that has no brakes mounted - the body is a 76 --- front suspension is 71 and I bought new rotors for all 4 corners. I have 6 stock front calipers (new and old) + the 2 early ones on the car -- -- and 6 rear calipers (new and old all of them need rebuild) - -- I have heard people put front calipers in the rear , but should I put early or late front calipers in the rear --- I have both ---- dont care about the e-brake ..... thanks for ideas -- I need to buy pads ASAP ---- going to do Porterfields --- but dont know which ones to buy for the rear ------ |
