Re: {Chrysler 300} Front Disk Breaks

I'm sorry, I have a 1967 Chrysler 300. I was told over and over that the brakes are just not made anymore and if I found them somewhere like the junkyard, they would eventually have to be replaced. I needed the brakes, rotors, calipers, and hoses. I figured I better change it out now to save money down the road. It's hard to find people who still work on old cars and when you do, it cost an arm and a leg! So, I bought the "conversion kit" made by Wheelwood? something like that. Hope I didn't get myself in more of a bind. My car looks like it has all the original parts on it. The gas tank and what was left of the floater thing inside the tank was so rusted! The gas was brown! Poor baby. He fires right up now. I can't wait to go for a ride with the top down...

Elaine, what year is your Chrysler 300? If it has factory installed disk brakes you will likely be able to purchase maintenance related parts direct from a local parts store. That said, you need to pay attention to the quality of the parts. There is a lot of poorly manufactured or remanufactured junk out there.

We really need to know the specific year before we can help further.

Hello Chrysler Family,
I'm the new girl on the block. I have a Chrysler 300 Convertible (no letter).

Right now I am getting a lot of work done on the engine, new gas tank ect...

I ran into a snag...I have factory front disk brakes. Where do I buy them?

Or does it make sense to convert them? I've heard of that too. I need help.

Thank you,

Elaina
