1972 Front Disc Brake Conversion

Well that’s a shame.

At the rate I drive mine I’ll probably need at least a couple of rotor replacements, which is why I prefer kits that use off the shelf wearable parts.



Well, I don't know how to say this but there is absolutely something wrong with your disk brakes then.

The Pirate Jack kit is based on '73+ Mopar disks, and in the physical world we inhabit there is no test where OE 73+ disks lose to OE 10" drums.

Not sure if you have some kind of mismatch of components, or if the cheap Chinese parts that come with the PirateJack kit are not the same quality as the OE parts, but the 73+ disks outperform the 10" drums in every way, shape and form. If yours do not, there is a problem.


Don't feel sorry for me.... I have too many cars to drive one all that much :p
