will 65 GTO disk brake spindles work on a 67 firebird?
I have a set for a 65 I might use on my 67 if they will work. Thanks

The '64 -'72 A-body (GTO) spindles will interchange onto the '67 -'69 F-body (Firebird) cars, just use the steering arms from the Firebird spindles.

That's what I was thinking but my buddy said they wouldn't work. Thanks b-man.

I've got 69 GTO front spindles and calipers on my car. It's a snap to swap the steering arms. The trick will be if you are going to use the 4 piston calipers from the 65. They are correct also for your 67, but tend to leak fluid around the piston seals. Have the calipers sleeved from someone that does a lot of the Corvette calipers. If you are converting from drum brakes be sure to replace the master cylinder and proportioning valve also.
Good luck. |

Most disc brake swappers will avoid the '67 -'68 4-piston caliper setups and go for the '69 -'72 single piston units. |
