Looks like the 67-68 setup to me,w/fixed 4 piston calipers . Could be wrong. Most 69 and later had flex line right to caliper . That bracket holding flex line looks like 67-68 stuff.

Here's a pic of my 68 w/4 piston calipers,,caliper removed. See how it looks like what you have? Got a pic of the master that's on the car? Caliper mounting bracket and splash shield are unique to the 4 piston setup,67-68.

Thanks...Ya'll have answered the questions with those pics..
I have 67-68 spindles.. The master on the car is a 4 wheel drum brake m/c. We are changing over the disc brakes.. Anyone wanna trade my for a set of 69 spindles? Bert

spindles were the same,as was rotor and steering knuckle.
If youre going to change brakes anyway I have a set of NOS spindles and I would kick in some for a trade. If you have 2 piece rotors just keep them.

Cammer-6,
So really the spindles are the same its the backing plates that are different. right? The 4 pistons mount on the ones I have and I want to use the single piston type. So what I need to do is change backing plates and I'm good to go. right? Bert
