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




By rotating the caliper to the 2 o'clock position, you can see it made caliper removal a snap, BUT the bleeder isn't on top any longer. I had to remove the caliper and had hold it with the bleeder on top to get all of the air out of the piston. That should be a one time operation unless I remove the caliper from the hose for some reason. Brake pad changes usually occur more frequently so I went with ease of caliper removal. My preference only. I only had to redrill two holes on each mounting braket in oder to rotate the unit as shown.
Also the hose retainer bracket has to be welded in a different place than were the instructioins say.
