Hi, My 68 Skylark has the 4-piston caliper system. I already replaced both calipers twice but leakage doesn't stop. So I am thinking about a conversion and found these calipers at OPGI. https://www.opgi.com/skylark/1968/brake-systems/disc-brakes/CH29044/ Which parts do I need to update my 68 4-piston style with this Wilwood calipers?Sebastian
Welwood disk brakes are good stuff. Helped install a set on a '67 mustang, a few years ago. Be aware that u must have 15" rims.
Why don't you have them sleeved??? I use White Post Restorations in White Post Va. They come with a LIFETIME warranty. I have been using them for yrs. NEVER a problem. I know there a little costly but then again all you have to do is replace with same kind with no kind of alterations/modifications nec. Just my thoughts Tom T.
Those are designed to replace the single piston on the 69-72 cars. They need the same bracket and backing plate as the 69-72 cars. I'm not sure if the spindle is the same or not. Parts are readily available to use those calipers from OPGI or Right Stuff. Here's two parts I think you will need to convert to those: https://www.opgi.com/skylark/CHQW384/ https://www.opgi.com/skylark/CH29158/
I think I will update my brake system with this set from Wilwood. http://www.wilwood.com/brakekits/BrakeKitsProdFront.aspx?itemno=140-15272 It costs about 575 $ at Summit and I think that's a good price for what you get. They told me this set works on my 68 A-Body disc brake spindles! What do you guys think about it? Regards, Sebastian
