RE: [Chrysler300] Brake shoe retainer/hold down spring - G

["Ronald Kurtz mark6268@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [Chrysler300]" <Chrysler300-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, all:

I converted the rear brakes on my "Knewport" to 3-inch rear brakes. What was needed to go from 2 1/2 inch to 3 inch drums and shoes are support plates that that can mount 3" shoes, hardware and a 3" brake drum. Mine works fine. Three-inch support plates drop back 1/2 inch to accommodate 3" drums on the axles.

Best,
Ron Kurtz

       Be very
 careful to get the parts for HD brakes as the wider rear
 shoes may require different springs and nails.  These may
 be included under 300, wagon or HD suspension.
  Rich in Brentwood  with a 300 Ram K car having HD
 brakes standard.  3” wide shoes & drums vs. 2 ½”
 on most other ’64 Chryslers. Came to me with 2 ½” shoes
 in the 3” drums.  Worked OK, but t’warn’t right. 
 Shoe lining material and length on different ‘64’s were
 different also, but that’s too much to ask.

 retainer/hold down spring - G    Have you checked your local parts
 house?This kinda thing is readily
 available at any of the 4 parts houses here in
 Mena.These springs, pins and cups are
 generic, I believe, and fit thousands of
 cars.Even if they don't have a kit
 listed for your car, check what they have for
 fit.I just bought kits for the rear of
 my Hurst, and I'm sure the hold downs are the same as
 any I have ever installed.The kits may differ due to the
 other springs included, which may be different from model to
 model, but the shoe hold down is the same.Ray  On Sun, Aug 9, 2015 at 11:05

 Looking for
 the brake shoe retainer spring hardware (nail, 2 cups, coil
 spring) for a G. Don't see it listed for this
 application on internet searches. Does anyone know of a
 source? I imagine this retainer length was used on other
 applications and would be willing to get a hardware set for
 that other application.
 
 Thanks.
