1971 Duster (w/9" drums)
(Already have the '73-up Wilwood calipers & brake lines)
Where's the best place to buy
all the (new) '73-up front-end
suspension parts (UCAs, etc.)
required for the front-disc
big-rotor (11.75") conversion?
This will be a major help & *thanks* in advance!!

We'd would've been happy to, but RMS does not sell the specific components needed in the parts list for the swap. Thanks for your thoughtful effort to be helpful. --  |

Someone makes new A-Body disc knuckles, very cost prohibitive IMO. Like $300+

New spindles are available @ Master Power Brakes in Mooresville NC. They are 500.00 for the pair, & come with the "special" MOOG ball-joints. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good used '70s vintage "junkyard-parts" are not a readily-available option in many parts of the country. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The only remaining part left to find now is the centerlink. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for each helpful reply! |

You'll need this list of parts...
Spindles and new spindle nut set - we have them - $350(same spindles as MPbrakes)
Lower balljoints - we have them - $89/pr ..."special" balljoints are a farce created by marketing geniuses to dupe the public into spending more money.
Wilwood caliper mount bracket set - we have them - $149
Tube uppers - we have them.(oem a-body ones are not available new, only the B/E ones.)$299 complete with upper balljoints and ends.
If your upper control arm eccentric bolts are bad, we have them for 39.80 a set. If yours are in good shape, you don't need them.
11.75 Cordoba rotors, bearings, seals, dust caps - local auto parts store, fairly cheap.
I'm not pushing for another sale, but thats the list of parts you'll need to do it, assuming you have the wilwood calipers for a 1" rotor thickness.

Those who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those of us who are doing it.
