Has anyone order these from Rock Auto? Would anyone have the parts number for rotor, bearings, and  seals. I plan to put on 70 spindals so  I think the front or rear bearing will be different for that.

I can get you bearing and seal numbers after I get home in the 24th. Or maybe @jimynick will chime in. He got them for his 74.

Don't think you can put '73 '74 rotors on a '70 spindle. Or is that the purpose of the question? Like what bearing will make it work?

:iagree:  unless you use these... Can't say I'm a big fan of this set up though. But I have no experience with it just don't like the idea of it. I'd swap out the spindles before I tried them.

Lots of other cars to get spindles from..... I disagree with his comments of a/b body spindles  :alan2cents:  I'd use them before I did the sleeve thing...

Yes those will work but the other trick is change the bearing in the 73 hub and will fit the 70 spindal. I did this many years and forgot the numbers.

I'm not sure what you are asking.....I don't think there is a bearing that will allow you to use a 73-74 rotor on a 70 spindle WITHOUT the aforementioned sleeve. :dunno:

You can easily get the 73-74 rotor/bearing and seal numbers on Rockauto by searching parts for a 73-74 Cuda/Challenger. I buy them there all the time. FYI..the outer bearing is the same for all years. and your 1970 dust shields will need to be trimmed to run the 73-74 rotors :alan2cents:
