Rear Brake Conversion

Post by 04_yelneon » Mon Mar 09, 2009 7:13 pm

I have the how to on this but my ?? is, and im sure it is, but are the rear disc brakes on a pt the same as the srt? I have some pt's at my local junk yard with rear disc... If they are the same as the srt, i was going to go through with the how to on my 04 sxt... I guess I could go out there and look at them and find out, but my laptop was closer... :lol:

do it. make sure it wasn't wrecked in the rear sides though. Get all the parts. Don't cut the cables or lines when you pull the parts off. It will be tempting since removal requires you to rip the inside apart.

not sure if the knuckles are the same since pt uses a beam axle. But i am about 90% sure that the rotors and calipers are going to work; should be the same as srt stuff.
