Hotrod1948 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I have a 1979 Brat and a 1984 brat (just a parts car) and am wondering if I can use the rotors and calipers off the 84 brat on my 79 brat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeroy Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Yes you can swap them. I would swap the handbrake cables and brake backing plates too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Fisterbottom Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Thats good to know, I've been finding it hard to get new pads. So far have only been able to get NOS asbestos pads and they really make a mess on my front wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertmann73 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 added bonus is you get rotors with venting so your brakes work cooler. first gen don't have these and warp easily. still got my set from the 84 but has bad rotor..i still have good first gen rotors but when they go bad i will make the swap too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
