Ebay Item number: 370195150369 for 62-65 B Body

Says they bolt directly to drum spindles, uses a 73 rotor and 92-99 Ram calipers. Sounds like an easy way to go if they work. Any done it?

Front and rear for me.......been on there for 2 years, they work good for me. One tip: buy a medium grip pad instead of stock, such as a performance Hawk pad.

I have NO experience with these and therefore no opinion other than If I was selling brakes I would not use the word SCARE in the name.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

how does that work, since all B body rotors are 1" thick, and the 94-01 ram rotors are 1 3/8" thick? do you get (or have to buy) pad spacers?

I have a set of their brackets on my 300 the brackets are fine , the spacers they sent me to make the rotors work were another story ... when the spacers were installed as provided there was no room to add a cotter pin the the end of the spindle, and the pads were not centered on the rotors. I sent a message to them asking for help and got no response ... I had a friend machine the spacers down .100 and then everything fit nicely.
SO they do work but they were far from a bolt on, and there is NO customer service after the sale ..
