We already have new rotors and calipers for the Superbee - which is a factory disc brake car. The hubs will get re-used with new studs (all right hand thread).

In 1970 all Dodges came with right hand threaded studs on the right side of the car and left hand threaded studs on the left side. I can't tell you how many of the left hand treaded studs where sheared off by folks using imapct tools on the left side of these mopars. So unless we doing a concors restoration, we tend to replace the old LH studs with normal right hand threaded studs.

BTW - If you are bent on a perfect original restoration, you can always stamped the "L" into the top of the right hand threaded stud. It will look like the LH stud to the judges, but still work as a RH thread! No need on Ed's Superbee as his car will be getting magnums with Chrome Acorn Lugnuts and you will not be able to see the ends of the wheel studs.
