Putting the Muscle back into Classic Cars

Modern Brake upgrade for the Chrysler CJ

May 17, 2024

You can’t just update a motor in one of these classics without updating the brakes as well.  The Chrysler by Chrysler already had a disc upgrade before we pulled her apart with cross drilled and slotted discs fitted but now it was time to upgrade the callipers as well with Hoppers Stoppers new 4 Spot Billet Callipers.  Not only does she pull up to a stop like a modern car the callipers subtly peaking through the front W35 mag rims look really cool as well.

Not to neglect the braking in the rear these were also updated with new finned drums and were completely rebuilt.  Not only fast on the track for an old car but the brakes should be able to withstand some hard sustained stopping and cornering as well.
