Spindles and brakes
 
We have gotten more work done on the '89 LX 4-banger to 347 car. I now have another question. Mike bought some bigger rotors (allegedly a GT app) and we need to have the spindles/calipers for that size rotor. No junkyard locally has them out of a GT, but we were told that a Lincoln, Cougar or Thunderbird spindles/calipers would be bolt in.

Is this true?

Thanks all...

Thanks man, check with your dad, I would really appreciate it. Also, thanks for the link. It looks like some of the junkyards have gone global!

What year lincon? I have a old dps coupe, when i replaced front wheel bearings for the first time, the bearings were too small, autozone had to give me bigger ones, I wonder if they are the lincon size rotors on my car? or if autozone just screwed up...imagine that.

Hmmm, I wonder if any of the aforementioned apps fit or not. Maybe a trip to the junkyard with the old spindles and calipers and a tape measure are in order...

Anyone else?
