RE: IML: ABS Failure

["Mark Swingle" <mark.swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The options lists I have show the 4 wheel disk with antilock as the only
braking option offered on the New Yorkers, from introduction in 88 thru 93.
Disc drum were standard on the New Yorkers.  Dynasty also was the same as
New Yorker if you got 4 wheel disc you got ABS.

LeBarons in 89 and 90 has 4 wheel disc without ABS standard.  Don't know if
their factory proportioning would work with the heavier Imperial.

I seem to recall someone telling me that there was a four wheel disk,
non-ABS New Yorker along about 87 or 88.  I wonder if any listers can
confirm this.

If you do the conversion to standard brakes, it may be a bit more involved.
On the minivans, the ABS system used a different pedal assembly so that had
to be changed too.  (This was from someone who converted a couple minivans
from ABS to non-ABS, he did not know if the cars were that way or not).
Plus Chrysler never offered a non-ABS four wheel disc car, at least the size
of the Imperial, so you may need an adjustable proportioning valve to make
the brakes work.
