    Ride Height?

    So I crawled under car and my biggest socket (7/8) wouldn't fit. What size are those things?

    Ride Height?

    Should there be any differential between the front and rear ride height? I have a 69 300 and always noticed a bit of a rake in the car's profile. I remember the revious owner telling me he had planned to make it a low-rider (to each his own...) and may have already begun by lowering the front...

    Lifting the front ride height

    Greetings everyone. Looking back at my car after I parked it (a rather common occurrence), I noticed just how low the front end it. I'm not scraping speedbumps with it, but I wouldn't mind it sitting a bit higher, especially with 15 inch 235/70s in the near future. The previous owner told me he...

    Wave Washers and horsehoe clips for parking brake lever

    I'm in the process of replacing the rear drums on my '69 Chrysler 300. The only thing I'm stuck on is the horseshoe clip and wave washer for the parking brake lever. It SEEMS pretty straight forward, washer and then the clip, but is there any special procedure or tool I would need to make sure...

    Looking for new shoes. Rims question

    I'm really liking the American Racing Outlaw rim, but it's 3.75. Will that still work? There's a similar one from US Wheel with 4.5, but never heard of that brand.

    1969 Chrysler 300 Tires

    Thuinking about going with this set up. What width rims are you using; I'm thinking 7" all around. Also, how well do they do on wet pavement? I rarely take it out in the rain, but we get these pop-up storms so can't always be helped.

    Looking for new shoes. Rims question

    I got those numbers off a website, can't remember which. It recommended 6 to 8 for 235s and 6.5 to 8.5 for 255s. Of course, my tire knowledge is negligible, so I'm at google's mercy ;-)

    Looking for new shoes. Rims question

    Hello, I recently posted a question about putting some slightly wider tires (and ergo, wider rims) on my 1969 300. I'm leaning heavily towards 235/70/15s up front and 255/70/15s on the back, running on seven or eight inch wide rims. I know it may depend on what brand/type I get, but will I need...

    1969 Chrysler 300 Tires

    I'm thinking about putting some wider tires on my 1969 Chrysler 300. Right now, it's running 225 75's on 15 inch rims. Whitewall looks pretty sharp, but they look like bicycle tires. I did some figuring and looks like 255 60s or 235 70s are pretty close to outer tire diameter to maintain the...
