Buick Century Parts & Accessories

Shop Buick Century parts for a brake refresh, classic suspension project or engine-service repair at Black Ops Auto Works. Compare drum-brake components, QA1 rear shocks, Whiteline bushings and engine-specific ignition references. Choose a focused repair or coordinate several service items around the Century generation you own.

Drum-Brake Parts for a Coordinated Service

DFC rear service shoes and drum-adjuster references give you separate choices for friction replacement and adjuster service. Inspect the drums, shoes, hardware and hydraulic components together to identify the parts needed for the job. A shoe package does not supply every component involved in a drum-brake rebuild.

Choose the actual axle and brake assembly before comparing references. Adjusters can be side-specific, while drum and shoe dimensions vary by application. For a converted car, use the brake system now installed when selecting the replacement components.

QA1 Shocks and Classic Suspension Projects

The QA1 Stocker Star rear-shock selection includes non-adjustable, single-adjustable and double-adjustable references. An adjustable damper gives a supported suspension project a tuning choice; compare the exact damper’s adjustment functions, mounting and operating lengths with the build. The listed aluminum single-adjustable reference specifies 13.75-inch compressed and 21.25-inch extended lengths.

The Whiteline upper-and-lower control-arm bushing kit names 1973–1977 Century coverage. It serves the specified arm pivots, while the listed QA1 sway-bar, trailing-arm and coilover choices address other parts of the chassis. Compare the joints being renewed and kit contents before planning a broader handling refresh.

Ignition Service for the Engine Installed

Granatelli ignition-wire choices include stated Century 3.8L applications and other engine/year-specific references. Match the installed engine and ignition arrangement to the complete wire-set application, then compare boot layout and routing with the components on the car. An engine conversion needs its own ignition-part identification.

Carburetors, intakes, differential parts and internal-engine components belong to more involved projects. Choose those against the actual engine or axle specification and the companion parts selected by the builder. The Century name spans different vehicle layouts, so a shared GM product title is only a starting point for finding the detailed application.

• Coordinate adjustable shocks, springs and other chassis parts with the installer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I buy brake shoes alone or a larger drum-service order?

Have the assembly inspected first. Shoes replace friction material; adjusters, drums, hardware and hydraulic components have separate roles and condition checks. Build the order around the work required and each product’s supplied pieces.

How do I choose between the listed QA1 rear shocks?

Compare non-adjustable, single-adjustable and double-adjustable references by the tuning your project needs. Match the complete shock application, mounts and working lengths to the installed suspension before choosing its adjustment features.

Does the Whiteline Century bushing kit include shocks or control arms?

The named product is an upper-and-lower control-arm bushing kit for its stated 1973–1977 application. Review its supplied bushings and hardware; order complete arms or dampers separately if the project requires them.

Will one Century ignition-wire set fit every engine?

Use the complete year and engine application for the selected Granatelli set. The catalog contains different references, including 3.8L applications. Match the ignition layout and any engine changes before choosing the wire set.
