Tech Question
Bernard McCarty, Kansas City, KS, 1966 Chrysler 300, 440HP
Using your conversion data, I have converted my 1966 Chrysler 300 to 11.75" front disks using all components from a 1973 Newport including the spindles. Calipers are pin type facing the front of the car. The problem is that if I put the calipers on the correct sides, the correct 73 brake hose with the long brass section hits the front caliper adapter bolt/nut. If I swap calipers, the hose doesn't interfere with anything but would have to be hooked up behind the assembly because the hose is too short. What did I miss?
The calipers must be rear hung. You must have the correct non-banjo-bolt calipers, which must be installed with bleeder screws facing up. You also must have the '73 - C - specific hose (3461735). In other words, you must truly use all the '73 components installed as they were in 1973!
