Going threw my extra brakes set ups and I ran across these. I just can't remember what they came off of and the spindle look quite a bit differnet from any of the others I have. Anyone recognize them??? They use the larger slide calipers. Thanks for taking a look

I'd like to see a better picture, but that looks like F/M/J body. They had the lower ball joint in the control arm with the stud going through the steering arm as opposed to being part of the steering arm.

This is the front side. takes the 11.75 rotors so I thought cordoba but those use the dart size calipers. these use the larger truck maybe?

Dust shield not 74 b-body, 73-74 b-bodies used pin type brake calipers and have a shorter steering arm too.

if it's a 1" wide rotor, late B? 11.75" rotors became standard on the late B/R's ~'76 or so.

if it's a 1.25" wide rotor, I'd wager truck or C body
