Just about to start this project. Have all my new rotors, pads, caliper rebuild kits, seals, hoses etc, and OEM calipers and spindles/brackets. Before I start pulling old parts off....is it absolutely necessary to replace the master cylinder and brake booster for a different style...designed for...

OK, ordered these prematurely. Some may know I'm doing a drum to disc conversion. These are too small. What is the proper size for '72 calipers? They are bigger than the drum ones. Also, what is the crush washer size? New brake hoses didn't come with crush washers. Thanks!

Got it! OMG! Ballpeen hammer, punch and pipe wrench. Tap, tap, tap, turn piston a bit with pipe wrench....tap, tap, tap Over and over! I'm OK with that because original plan was to rebuild these with new seals and piston. Bores look good, no pitting. Pitting and bubbling was actually on the...

I had these soaking overnight in WD40. Probably try another like PBB. That's what I been using to move piston is the compressed air. When all goes to plan....that piston comes flyin' outta there!!

So, all the parts starting to come in for the disc conversion. I got word today that the left caliper I ordered wont be shipping. Didn't exist from seller. Anyway…. Both the old OEM calipers have pistons I can't fully remove. Pistons come out maybe about a 1/2 inch. Can push pistons back in...

So...….got my spindles and disc setup from Barnfind...2 boxes. Issue with one of the boxes, surprise, surprise! Box kinda opened, and lost the baggy with some of the bolts. Questions...are the bolts anything special that hold the backing plates on to the spindles? Like low profile heads or...

Was a good read last night! I fell asleep at the computer late into the night yesterday! Wife woke me up, and said 'OMG, what are you doing now'! lol

Thanks! I just bought the setup from Barnfind. Thanks to all the other guys that had offered up parts! Barnfind's stuff came from a 72 c-body. I believe 69-72 c-bodies used the same parts. I hope, as I just got it. lol Off to do some more research on the smaller parts over at RA and ebay...

Guys, I think I'm going to take on another project...drum to disc conversion with OE parts. On my '69 300 'vert. I fell asleep last night reading through this thread and some other articles I found on line. I just want to get the correct parts the first time round lol Based on these two...

Screw it, I'm going rubber lol. You saved me some dollars!!

Found this on ebay, states for disc brakes... 69-73 Mopar C E B Body Front Disc Brake Caliper STAINLESS Flex Hose Line SH017 | eBay I'm still going to call them though.

That's what I'm thinking. I have their number in my cell now. Will call in the AM. I like SS lines. I know on my old Harleys, I switched from rubber to SS lines, and you can feel the difference at the lever, so thinking same thing for these.

So I'm researching brake lines, and came across these. But doesn't say if for drum or discs. Is there a difference I should know about, or would this work on my drum setup? 1963-64 Impala Rear 1969-71 Chrysler C-Body Front 1970-73 Mopar B-Body & E-Body Front Stainless

Are the rear drums the same size??

I use Russell speed bleeders, never had an issue.

Thank you Sir!!

For my '69 300 with front drums. Want to replace the bleeder nipples, but need to know the size. Going to put in some 'speed bleeders'. Going to change out my rubber brake lines for some new ones. Old ones are cracked, making me nervous. Speed bleeders make life so much easier when bleeding the...

Changing front shocks now. Took a break to look on here to see what people did. This was going to be my next step. Zip ties not do it lol. Picked a hot *** day to do it too. Damn!!

All the way from the east coast! Saved big bucks on shipping!! Thanks James, was nice to meet you!! Packed safely in my suitcase. Will disassemble and clean them up....

Thanks everyone! Excellent info!! In a google search for covers, an old thread popped up, (2017), on here for a set of the W15 8 hole style. He still has them and is checking on shipping.
