Re: [AMC-list] Disc Brake Set Up Question...

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx>]

For the Matador the rotors may be the same. Matadors used the big bearing spindles at least from 75-78, not sure about earlier. Easy to check the wheel bearing set at www.rockauto.com. The small cars used a different caliper starting in 77, with one rotor for 77-78 (small caliper, big bearings, 0.81" rotor) and another for 79-83 (small bearings). 75-76 models all used the big bearings and big calipers. 71-74 used Kelsey Hayes brakes, 75-81 Bendix (big and small), 82-83 Delco (similar to K-H).

I checked Rock Auto for brake rotors for the 78 Matador, and they listed the
same rotors as fitting 74-78.  Is that correct?  I though 74-76 were
different than 77-78.
