Re: [FWDLK] BRAKE SIZES

[David Homstad <dhomstad@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ed,

I am not very familiar with all years of Mopar, but in 1956, this is what
was available:
1.      10 x 2” brakes on some of the least expensive Plymouths.
2.      11 x 2” brakes on most Plymouths and all Dodges.
3.      12 x 2” brakes on Chryslers and DeSotos, Dodge D500 and Plymouth Fury.
4.      12 x 2 ½” brakes on Imperials, racing Chrysler 300s and Dodge D500s.

Hello List
Happy Weekend!

Concerning 12" brake shoes/drums................

I guess they started being used on the Chryslers and Desotos in 1957?? (and
Dodge D500?)
I am getting mixed signals on the width of the 12" shoes that were used on
the 57-59 MOPARs

Were there such things as 2" wide shoes??
Or were all 12" shoes 2 1/2" wide??????

Just trying to figure out a parts book
Thank you
