1970 Disc brakes

[wilky70]

I'm rebuilding the disc brakes on my 1970 Superbird. The only hardware that was left were the worn out pins. I purchased this kit with all the correct hardware. I assembled it according to the picture I have in the shop manual. Could someone please confirm this looks correct.
Thank you in advance.

Excellent work. I would use bonded lining though,Riveted pads and shoes will crack at the rivet holes.
Just make sure that the pins are lubricated with a silicon type grease.
Quality pads and shoes are always bonded, never riveted.
Clean the rotors with some brake clean on a clean rag so any grease that gets on them is not transferred to the brake lining.

Thank you. I purchased the pads from a local company that rebuilds calipers and M/C's. They are organic pads that he had sitting on the shelf for years. I didn't want metallic or semi-metallic pads. Didn't realize that were prone to cracking, thank you again for letting me know that.
