John, Do you still have your solid state voltage regulators for sale? I need one for my new H. Also, thanks for the advice on the 63/64 brake swap. I have located a 63 Newport for the parts and may make the change unless I decide to go to disc brakes. I am also considering changing the master cylinder to the dual chamber type. Anything to watch out for or any advice on this change? ________________________________ From: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of John J.

Get rid of those stupid brakes and replace them with a '63 or '64 Chrysler Bendix setup (get them from any Newport, 300, NewYorker). It's a three-bolt bolt-on. The 61 Newport as well as the 62 are Sort Wheelbase cars - same as any 63 or 64 Chryslers model. You just need to remove the entire spindle and steering arm assemblies and swap them. I did this to my '61 Newport as well as to many other Short Wheelbase Chryslers, the results are phenomenal, the car stops perfectly, straight and true, no more locking up, no more pulling, no more problems.

He has taken them to brake shops in two different towns. to no avail. The left front is the worse one. He replaced the linning ,hoses , and cylinders. Most of the time by backing up it will release and go untill the brakes are used again. He is ready to sell if he can't find out why. I have a 61 New Port that I drive as a daily driver that does the same thing but, not nearly that bad. Anyone out there have the answer as to what might be the cause???? Gary Holm in wet and wild So.
