I swapped a complete drum to drum 8 3/4 axle out of a 68 Chrysler Newport into my 61 Fury. Same ratio, drive shaft bolted in, no mods needed, straight up swap. Easy and inexpensive to locate one.

I'm looking for advice and information on converting my single reservoir master cylinder to a dual reservoir. Brake line routing, do I need a line equalizer, any other parts? It's a 64 Dodge D200 with non power drum brakes.

The most effective way to resurface a drum is to have them ground at a machine shop rather then cut.

If your original drums are in spec on the diameter than have them sand blasted and resurfaced. At least you'll have OEM quality drums. Ends the lug stud issue to.

65 Furys ARE old school. White walls #1, black walls in a pinch. Never RWL on a anything before 1970. Nice wheels, but they do not complement the car.

Unless the bores on your original cylinders are badly pitted I recommend rebuilding them. The chinese castings are not up to the original standards. Seal kits are easy to find.

My 61 Fury came with 850 X 14 tires originally. I'm stepping up to 15" motor wheel spoke wheels. Does anyone know what 15" tire size will compare to a 850 X 14 tire dimension? Thanks Will.

A fellow at the shop where I had my front end aligned actually knew what I was talking about when I told him about the left hand thread lugs on my Polara..... Turned out he had a 70 Challenger. Most just give you the "dear in the headlight" look.

A bumper jack? Bumper jacks are for emergency tire changes, and for display in the trunk ...... NEVER NEVER, EVER get under a car supported by a bumper jack..... Ask me how I know!!!!

FYI..... Raise the car with a jack before attempting to raise the torsion bar jack screws. It took 3 complete turns on each to raise my 67 Polara 1" But..... It seems you have several other issues to consider before worrying about ride height.

HD canvas impregnated with anti seize works good.

It's become quite clear that your in the wrong site. Not likely to win any admirers here. My advise.... go somewhere else..... And bag it!

Wrong site......! :confused::BangHead:

Those are excellent wheels to use as replacements for 60's 15" wheels. They were made for use with radial tires, Heavier construction, less flexing, which causes dangerous wheel cover loss. My dad loved his Imperials and switched to Lincolns when the Imperial went away. I remember him getting...

Not hard to locate a 65 or later 8 3/4 that will bolt directly in. My 61 Fury has a axle swapped from a 68 Newport. Bolted in. I retained the e-brake on the rear of the trans. No cables.

I'm not a big fan of aftermarket wheel/tire combos on a C body, but your car wears those chrome reverse and baby moons well. :thumbsup:

Those are wheel covers, not hub caps..... :poke:

One of the unique features of older Mopars are the "lefty" lugs on the left side. It's like a badge of honor to me. (it's in the details). If you need all right hand threads, buy a Ford or GM..... :poke:
