Re: [Chrysler300] 300G Rear Brake Backing Plates

3/4 may be too big . I tried 1/2 looks like a go stud is about 1/2 . May have to drill out threads or force with press --tbd

Those adjusters do have a tendency to freeze up over time if not adjusted periodically.  One fix I've seen in the past is to take a nut (like a 3/4" size) and weld it to the rounded off adjuster stud.  Now you have a 3/4" adjuster instead of the rounded off 7/16" that was originally there.  (Don't force it, get a bigger hammer!)

Does anyone have a SET of Rear Backing Plates that they are willing to part with.

I also need the Supports .

The Supports are the double plated device that the Brake Springs attach to and they also have the adjusters that go thru the backing plate to adjust the brakes. The adjusters on mine are rounded as if someone in the past used vice grips on them to adjust the brakes.
