At what point did front discs become standard equipment?
Can I assume that a '72 lemans has discs up front, or was GM still shipping drums up front standard in '72? -Mike

No, '72 LeMans did not have disc brakes as std equipment.
In '73 A bodies received discs as std equipment. Totally different rotor & spindle

My 72 has the optional front discs... thank god. I love them. They perform very well with the modern brake pads of today.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
