So I’ve read the debates to run or not Car is 90% drag 10% street I had planned to run the shields cleaned up one spindle degreased wire brushed painted ready for new ball joints and hubs and reassembled Spindle #2 The brake dust shield is rusted a lot worse behind rotor so it’s no good looked around not seeing new shields listed for 1973 A Body Skinny drag lite front tires rotor hangs out in the air Forget the shield or order parts hoping they fit ?? |

I don't think it really matters much. I left them off a drag car (small weight reduction). New/used shields shouldn't be that difficult to find. |

Shield are not rally needed unless you drive in wet or dust a lot. Race cars do not use them at all to keep the brakes cooler Greg |

Deep water is all they're good for. And disc brakes shed water really well. |
