Disc Brake Conversion on '59 Coronet
Return to the album thumbnailsBack Next




Here is the finished installation on the rear of my '59 Coronet. I used a '70 Charger 8 3/4 rearend because I wanted a different gear ratio and a sure grip unit. Roger makes kits to fit either the tapered axle rearends or the flanged axle rearends. The caliper is supposed to be mounted in the 3 o'clock position so the bleeder screw is on the top of the piston bore. That put the lower caliper mounting bolt next to the spring and would have been a little more work to remove, come pad changing time. The three big aluminum washer are just to hold the rotor on the axle flange tight, while mounting everything else. So I could check all clearances with out the wheel being in my way.
