" The steering stop mounts to the back side of the steering

" Pacers and everything else, and will interchange.  Note that 1975/76 
" got the "big Bendix" brakes while later years got other types.  For 
" Pacer owners, it appears that the late rotors will fit the big Bendix 
" setup, and are much less expensive.  I haven't tried it yet, but have 
" a set that I plan to try.

my '65 american project car had '76 pacer disks on it.  i never got it
finished enough to drive it, but they bolted up fine.  afaik the
spindles, caliper brackets, etc were the same as other amcs.

-some- late rotors fit the big bendix spindles -- the '77-8 small
bendix setup used the same calipers as '79-'81 but the big bearing
spindles.  afaik the rotors are not as thick as the big bendix ones.

btw the late small bearing rotor fits '79-'83, with both the bendix
and delco calipers.  i think if you swapped spindles it'd fit '77-8
too.
