Wanted disc brake spindles for 67 - 70 88 or 98

I need a used disc brake setup from a 67 thru 70 full size Oldsmobile.
Rotor condition unimportant.

Be aware that the caliper brackets are different between the 67-68 four piston calipers and the 69-70 single piston sliding calipers.

Yes, I am aware of that.
I'm looking specifically for a 69 or 70 setup, but would accept a 67 or 68.
I'm looking for the complete deal, spindles, caliper brackets, calipers (for cores) and hubs.

'69 - '70 Single Piston Disc Brakes

There's a discussion of a '70 Electra Coupe on the Buick site. It is in a Seattle area pick a part. Car has Disc Brakes. Not suggesting you pursue it, but is there any Interchange here?

Unfortunately not. The 1960s B-body cars all used unique suspension and brakes.

Dude, this is your lucky day! I have all that '69-'70 full size Olds disc brake stuff that you want. I parted out a '69 Delta 88 Royale, and a '70 98 years ago. I just wanted the good running 455 engines. Both had disc brakes. Both were running driving cars that I drove home to dismantle. I also grabbed a third setup in the junkyard years ago. There is alot of really good stuff here.

I had, and still have a '65 Starfire and a '66 Dynamic 88. Both are convertibles. I've had both since the 1980s. I'm getting old, dude. I'll never do the brake conversion on either of the cars at my age. All 3 cars were bone dry desert cars. The parts are now full of surface rust, and will need sandblasting and machining and honing or replacement. You forgot to mention that the control arms are different, too. According to the 1974 volume of the Hollander Interchange manual, the 1967 to 1970 disc brake control arms are different than the regular 1965 to 1970 drum brake parts. Live and learn.

You can have ALL of this stuff for just $1200. Enjoy, and share the extra stuff with other Olds big car enthusiasts. You're welcome. This stuff is heavy, so shipping will be somewhat pricey depending on where you live. If you're close to LA, come by and pick it all up for free. Enjoy the pictures. I hate computers, so you can call me, Marty, at (818) 704-0145 here in LA. And yes, the 2 convertibles are probably for sale. The Starfire is a real diamond in the rough. A rust free Phoenix car. Same with the Dynamic. Both cars were the very last ones built of that particular model.

Please NOTE This Phone is a Landline and ONLY HAS VM - It Does NOT Take Texts. does NOT HAVE caller ID. It is NOT a cell phone.

818-704- 0145 MARTY

LEAVE YOUR NUMBER SLOWLY so I can hear the whole thing and I will get back to you.

If You Call from a Cell Phone Please Call From a Quiet Environment. Thanks So Much for Understanding

Hi Marty,
Thanks for the offer, but I have already found a '70 disc brake set up.
I'm in the process of installing it now.
Perhaps one (or three) of our fellow members need them.
Try advertising them in the "parts for sale " section.
