70 Charger Disc Break Rotor Bearing Dust Cups - Help!

[Road Grabber]

I can't find replacement bearing cups for my 1970 Charger disc brake rotors. Does anyone have a source or part number that will work?

If you know of replacement rotors that would be great as well. I never rotor from the hub before. Any advice would be great...

These are the original two piece rotors.

The auto parts catalogues are wrong!!! They always end up being too large.

Thank you in advance!

There was a glitch in the parts manual clear back in the 70's..

Look u the correct bearings and seals for a 10" drum... They should fit, they always did back in the 70's, 80's & 90's... Hopefully they haven't screwed that up..

I am looking for the dust cups that cover the outer bearings on the disc rotors.....

Stupid things are holding me up!

Most any parts store will have dust caps

Problem has been the application in the parts book doesn’t give me the right size.

I went through all this not too long ago. Parts stores are of no help here.
On the other hand, Rick Ehrenberg has a stash of NOS caps he sells on ebay and I can
attest that they fit:

Thanks. I have been looking at the Dorman cups and will measure my rotors again. This ad had a different part number than the others which makes it interesting.

Thanks for the replies. If anything works I will definitely share it for the others.

No worries ordering stuff from the man. In case you don't know, that's "Professor" Richard Ehrenberg, Mopar guru

I sent a message via Ebay to Rick and he told me the diameter was 1.786

That should work.

Contrary to many websites I went to that claimed their dust cups fit 70 Chargers. The Dorman number they gave was 13976. That number was on at least 5 other sites I went to. The diameter however for that dust cup is 39.68mm which converted to 1.562. Not even close. The books are wrong at NAPA too.

I looked back on my orders and it appears I used Dorman 618-101.

Yes. That measurement should work.

Thanks. I will keep that for my records. I have other rotors that might need cups.

I’ve seen the Ford application mixed with Dodge before.

This drove me crazy for a long time.

Just wanted to say thanks for the intel. I bought the dust covers from Richard and they fit perfect.

I have not found another source for these at all and the auto parts stores do not list them correctly.

Finally got my wheels back on.....

Thanks again
