How rare are disc brakes on a 69 Delta 88 ?

Just curious how rear disc brakes are on a 69 Delta 88 and what else will they fit, b-body wise ? They have the 5 on 5 bolt pattern. I am parting the car out if anyone is in the market for a setup.

Thanks
Dennis

They're not common for sure. They'll work on any 65-70 B/C body car. The kicker is if anything needs replacing, the stuff doesn't exist. Make sure you pull everything from master cylinder to pads including brake lines.

I found some conflicting stories. Some say they will fit any 65-70 b-body. Others say the Buick are Buick only and the Pontiac are Pontiac only, as well as the Chevys. I don`t see how or why GM would have made them all different considering all the A-body d/b setups interchange. The car is located in Trenton Michigan. I`ll try to check the dissgard monday or tuesday but I won`t sell the rotors seperately unless you buy the whole setup and only want the rotors. I listed the d/b on ebay.

Dennis, I mis-spoke myself. I meant any 65-70 Olds B/C body. The Divisions were notorious for going their own way on brakes/suspension thru 1970.

I have seen that Stainless Steel Brakes also makes a drum conversion kit if you are interested.
