I just bought on ebay a set of front disc brakes for my 1970 electra off of a gs. The rotors are the correct 5on 5 spacing. Does anyone know if the drum brake spindles are the same as the disc. Also the seller sent me a set of a arms with the brakes no good to me, have any thing to trade or pay shipping. Tom
Electra and GS use different set-ups ..........so ......you can not use the A-body spindles on your B-body. The rotors probably came from a 71-76. Disc brakes on the 67-70 models are hard to find. Also, the spindles for drum and disc are different.
The seller says they will fit{ OF COURSE} hOW CAN i TELL WHAT YEAR THEY CAME FROM AND WHAT MODEL. Did the a models come with the 5 on 5 spacing? This board is a great resource as i am new to Buicks. Tom o No:
Reread the ad says they are from a 1970 gs. Asked him to send me the vin from car. If they do not fit my car will offer on this board,
Rechecked the bolt pattern they dont fit my rims they are 4.75 inch spacing will put on parts for sale
