Re: [Chrysler300] Wildwood Disc Brake Installation Video- Front/Rear

["John Grady jkg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [Chrysler300]" <Chrysler300-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Anyone have Any idea what is different about late 58 - 62 ( at least ) ( specifically F) upper and lower control arms , ball joints and spindles and say 65 ? 

I am not familiar with what went on after 62 .. Something did ? 

This is a great tip , may have more application . I had a 74 imperial new -- it had rear discs with parking brake inside the hat  ( and did not work that well , frankly) on a Dana 60 . Nice setup . I assume front disc  is the same as 73 .

For anyone who has a L or 65-68 C body. Their is a easy disk brake upgrade using all Chrysler parts.

The front disk brake assembly from a 73 C body is a direct bolt in. Spindles are a perfect fit. John Hertog and I did this to several 65-66 Chryslers.

The rotors and calipers are cheap and available. If you find a doner car grab proportioning valve and lines.

Hi To All,

While I get my photos together and work on the write up for the 1957-1964 “C” Body Front and Rear Wilwood Brake Installations, my mechanic does have an instructional video for installation on an Impala.

https://youtu.be/WEoTKNNvkYI

Please note that she does not wire the lugs together on the rotor assembly. It is highly recommended for this to be done. Please refer to John Hertog’s early tech article when he was working on early Magnum Force prototypes for Wilwood brake installation. MF has since developed an installation bracket that does not require modifications to the original suspension and steering components.

The video shows an installation of a front adaptor bracket for Impala. With the exception of the vehicle specific adaptor bracket and bolt pattern, the front installation is similar.

The rear requires the installation of a green bearing on the rear axle on 8 3/4” Mopar rears. The rear installation is similar.

Enjoy Emily Williams.
