Be aware that 67-68 used the four-piston fixed calipers and are different from the single piston sliding calipers used on the 1969-72 cars. Either design will fit all 1964-72 A-body cars, but they are different.

If you are doing the 69-72 style which is the best in my opinion these parts are very easily found aftermarket as full kits for under $600 shipped
