Hi, does anyone know where I can get rotors for this beast? Calipers as well. Also, does the Delmont 88 brakes the same as the Delta 88 and 98?

I checked with Kanters and they don't have anything. Tons of parts for Cutless and F-85, but not what I need.

You can't. No one makes new rotors for these cars. You are stuck either finding NOS originals (good luck) or good used ones (also good luck). Chevy parts do not fit.

By the way, what would it take to convert my disc brakes to those of the '68 442?

Can I buy the calipers, rotors, etc., for the 442 and slap that on? What modifications would I have to do? Also, could I still my tires? Just thinking outside the box here. New rotors for a 442 or cutless are pretty cheap.

Would anyone happen to have the dimensions of the rotors for a 1968 Delmont Oldsmobile 88 (15 in rim)? I know this was rare as most Delmonts had 14 in tires with drums. A picture ?

If you have a 1968 Toronado or a 1968 Eldorado, I would be interested in the dimensions of the rotors for them as well. A picture too?

I have been the unique 15" wheels on Toronados with the center cap. Perhaps the dealer switched it?

Matchek, Do yourself a favor. First there is a post on here about rotors adapted to the 68-70 hubs. Uses a late Camaro rotor. Second, do yourself another favor, get a pair of rebuilt 69-70 calipers. 68's had dual piston calipers that are a real problem to find stuff for. I would just bag-em and tag-em to save for a later date. You cannot use the 442 stuff. To start 442's had a 4 3/4" bolt pattern, your car has 5". Pretty sure the bearings and seals are different too.

I have a full disc brake setup from a 69 and 70 98. I even have a new set of calipers. Only sold as a complete set. If interested just PM me.

If your 68 came with disc brakes it also received 15 inch wheels which are not Toro wheels but they did share the hubcap with Toro.

Eldo and Toro rotors are completely different than RWD cars. A body spindles rotors are lighter duty than the full size cars.
