Just a bit of info on a brake sight (Duntof Braking) they spacify it will cost more for the correct casting numbers. I looked at some of other catalogs and it doesn't mention anything about casting numbers?Question

Well...they went on with absolutely no problem other than I had to tweak the bends on the new stainless brakelines going to them. Still need to borrow my son-in-laws brake bleeder kit and get them bled. Still not a single word from MAM on my question. Thumbs Down Need to get new parking brakes adjusted and the brakes should be good to go!

Same calipers were used from '65 up....lots of different casting numbers to choose from, so if you want "correct" numbers, it will usually cost more.
Glad ya got em on, anyway.
