Re: {Chrysler 300} 300G Disc brakes

[Drew W Carl <drew@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I never understood the desire to convert. Jay Leno seems to be a big fan of this. I always felt you drive the car for the car it is. And if the drum brakes are adjusted properly they have always worked fine for me. Semi trucks have drum brakes. What is the big deal? I would prefer completely original car with original brakes and just drive it for the car it is, but everything is opinion and preference.

You will no doubt find folks who say they converted an F or G to disks and are happy. I am not among them. Pedal travel will be too long, master cylinder selection severely limited by booster and right carb. I hated it. I had it on my F and removed it last year, back to stock drums. 

 

There is no technical reason to convert. The G brakes, stock, are fine in good condition.

Has anyone installed the full disc conversion from Andy Bernbaum? I’m considering converting my G during restoration.

Thanks,
