Which brake calipers?

[smitty62]

I put an '84 front crossmember under my 1/2T '68 pickup and added 1 1/4" thick brake rotors. Local parts shops say they don't have a caliper to fit a 1 1/4" rotor. I need these rotors because I am going to run 6-lug wheels and all 6-lugs rotors are 1 1/4". Can someone advise me what calipers I need? Thanks

You need a different parts store.
1-1/4" HD rotors have been around since 1971.

73-87 applications could also have the Light Duty 1" rotors.
Which spindles do you have?
Everything has to match.
Spindles, rotors, calipers, and bearings.

To answer your question,... Go purchase a set of '73 calipers.
They will require a 7/16-20 banjo bolts to connet the rubber brake hose.
Later (80-87) calipers require a 10mm metric banjo bolt.
