Title: Scap old front drum parts?
Post by: red69 on January 23, 2009, 03:43:00 PM

My son is swicthing over his 67 coupe hot-rod to disc brakes. He is going to toss the drum stuff. Does anyone need any of these parts? You can have them for shipping.

67 Camaro coupe standard drum brakes. The car was originally a 327 powerglide, early production as I remember.

I have a set laying around as well.  Complete spindles with all the drum stuff.  They are ugly, but if these are gone and you want a set, I will make the same offer....just pay shipping.  Otherwise to the trash they go.

you might be able to sell the spindles at a swap meet. there are some people who will buy them, machine the top backing plate boss down to convert them to disk brake spindles. they usually then sell them for about $50 each.

Are the spindles the same as the later two piece rotor spindles, and or the JL-8 brakes?

John,
Why no?

The disc and drum spindles are the same except for that boss. Pretty easy to convert them to disc spindles on a mill.

The 2 pc rotor didn't affect the spindles.

Kurt, what I meant was it is not a bolt on and go replacement.  Sorry about that.

Sorry about the earlier post I meant to ask if the hubs were the same as two piece rotor hubs and or JL-8?

I could use the spindles only  if you still have them.  Email me

If anyone has drum spindles they want to be rid of let me know.  I'd be interested.
