What i have here is a complete, rebuilt Kelsey Hayes, disc brake set up that is used on the 1969-73 C body Mopar Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, cars.
I have spent a lot of time finding this equipment, taking the time to bust this stuff off a car out in the field, cleaning everything up, rebuilding the calipers, and finding and buying all the rebuilding parts.
This is what i do as a retired professional auto mechanic, on my own time, to keep me busy, and have something to do, during the day. I rebuild disc brake components, upper, and lower control arms for these old Mopar cars. Shop labor rates where I'm at are $200.00 + dollars an hour. I don't work for free, or go to the grocery store, or gas station, or pay my rent, without working to pay the bills. If you factor in what it took me to firstly buy these parts, cleaning them up, doing all the rebuilding, buying the new parts. You try it and see what rotors, brake pads and hoses, rebuild kits, pistons in the calipers, races, seals, and everything else, will cost you. I have already done all the hard, dirty work for you. I can guarantee you, if you purchased someone's parts for $400.00 or more you will be into them for lots of money that i have just described.
OK, Here's what you are getting with this set up. Newly rebuilt calipers, new rebuild kits, New brake pads. The hubs have all the bearings, and grease seals for the spindles. All the studs are right hand threads, since this set up officially came of a 1971 Dodge Polara.
The rotors with hubs are the original two piece parts. Rotors and hubs.
The rotors measure in at 1.230 thousandths of an inch, with the minimum thickness being 1.180 thousandths of an inch.
All the bolts are all there, for installation of these brakes onto your car.
Gravel shields, Spindles, with all the necessary mounting bolts are all there.
>>>>> Now please read this about all the fine print about these parts.<<<<<<
I expect that you know how to work on brake systems on your car if you purchase all these parts from me. You need to know how to install brakes, bleed brakes, maybe bend and flare a brake line or two, and know what the heck you are doing on a changeover such as this. You must have a working mechanical knowledge, knowing what your doing.These parts are being sold as is, even though they are rebuilt components. After all, these things are 54 + year old parts.
Once they leave here they are your's. No returns. I haven't had any complaints from my internet clients,that i sold rebuilt upper, and lower control arms, and various other style calipers for the old Mopars, and all the other brake set up's that i have sold to my customers. Everyone has been a happy camper.
>>>>>Now please read this about shipping and my handling charges.<<<<<
Since all these parts are very heavy, this is what i will do on packaging everything up, and sending them out to the buyer.
I package these parts in four box's, maybe 5, to send out to my buyer.
And for me to purchase necessary box's for these parts, they are now costing in the six to nine dollar range, for box's of size.
Cardboard ain't cheap anymore either, i have found out.
I use a discount shipping agent thru the UPS company that gives me a very favorable shipping rates.
But these parts packaged up weigh in at 100 + pounds.
Expect a $200.00 dollar shipping quote from me, if these parts go all the way to states back East from California.
Naturally cheaper to middle America states, or here on the West coast.
Selling everything at $800.00 plus the shipping to your zip code.
That's my price, no "offers" "trades for other parts" or services.
Rebuilding parts costs have gone up substantially since the last brake set up that rebuilt, on B and A body cars, and also what i now have to pay for them when i find this stuff at a wrecking yard.
Send me an e mail pm message thru this forum, for any other information, questions.
Payment will be the good old fashioned way, by postal money orders, or a cashiers check from your bank, or i also accept Pay Pal payment, Friends or Family, or Goods and Services. If paying thru Goods or Services their fees will be added onto the total.
Your choice, whatever you want to do for payment with me. I will leave that up to you.
You have questions, need to talk, do it with me in a private message on this forum, and i can give you my e mail address, phone number, for personal conversation.
Thank's a lot.
