Anyone know the weight of the 73 up A body disc spindle? That's what I have on my 66 Dart now. I am thinking of going with a race disc setup. I have the 66 drum stuff on another parts car and could order a kit to fit it and maybe shave a few more pounds.

Next step, going to need upper and lower ball joints. Any options out there for a race only vehicle. Looks like standard Moog stuff will be in the $200 range for all four.

When you say kit I assume your talking about a brake kit. I spoke with a member on here who sells the Aerospace stuff and he told me the drum application was no problem. I do have to find out about the wheel bolt patern. I don't want the early small pattern.

Strange makes a kit for the 9" drum spindle. It has 4.5" bolt circle.
