Finally, a simple, clean and to the point video. I appreciate you doing this. People have made this swap out to be like you need to collect all 7 Dragon Balls. You got a new sub… Damn, I just realized this is 3yrs old. I wonder how come I never found this before??? Better late then never…
I’ve always said this. Our 5.7s should come stock with ATLEAST 4 piston brembos!!! Instead of this upgrade I just did pursuit BR9 ones so I didn’t have to buy more wheels to fit over the brembos
Not that this isn't a cool mod to do, I do have one alternative if you guys are looking to make your car stop better. Look into the BR9 brake package. There is even a forum thread on the BR9 swap with part numbers and everything. I mention this because this particular mod is going to set you back quite a few bucks and the alternative is significantly cheaper. Don't have to change spindles, you get 14.5" fronts where brembos can be either 14.2" to 15" depending on what model it come off of. The trade off is this, you get 2 piston cast iron calipers. These are the same brakes that come on all 2014.5 and up Charger Pursuit cars so parts are dirt cheap all things considered. Good vid though man. You didn't overcomplicate it. Just down and dirty. Liked your vid on the exhaust overrun too.
In Canada our bone yards have decent deals on different brembos but cost wise the br9 is the best bang for buck. You just don't get the red block calipers.
@@DropTopPerformance why not just replace the wheel hubs and rotors with the SRT8 for those brakes ? Do you really have to do all that in order to have SRT quality front brakes?
So I would guess even before all this you need to get the Hellcat rims first because mine are from a 2013 Charger RT and the Wheel size is 245-45-20 and the Hellcat rims use 275-40-20 and is wide enough the fit the caliper and rotors. Spacers would solve the problem but I would prefer to get the wider rims first.
I haven't turbocharged my SXT yet, but damn, for flare I think I'd definitely want to upgrade to this, I've noticed how meh the stock brake rotors have looked
Quick question will 2007 charger SRT Brembos bolt directly on my 2015 charger RT Road and Track? I'm getting everything from SRT spindles front and rear disks, pads, brake line and 4 brembo calipers etc.
i have question i have charger rt 2019 i whanna install brembo 6 piston & i whanna know if i can used the same brake line of rt to brembo calipers & the bolt
I just finished doing that swap. Make sure the brake line is attached to the caliper when you buy it. The stock rt caliper brake line will not transfer over. but the mounting point on the wheel well is a direct fit.
I've been looking for a video like this for awhile. I always wondered if it was possible. Thanks bro good detail video! Mopar👊🏿 you definitely just gained a new follower.. @Drethehardway
People when he said he had to gt it pressed out well all he had to do was put the nut back on till its level with the bolt then hit the nut with your hammer till it pops off then remove the nut and wala.😎
Does it matter what year of spindles/Brembo brakes you buy? For instance, I have a Challenger R/T Plus. I found a take off from a 2006 Chrysler 300 SRT. Any difference in years. Any difference in Chassis as for as Challenger vs Charger vs 300?
I just got my front spindles put on. Did you use the same bolts that mount the old calipers to mount the brembos, they seem to be the same. Also, there are no axle nuts up front right?
I did the same thing you did in the video but it didnt work on my car because the tire ring rubs on the caliper, i bought the spindle and everything. I really need your help.
I have 2016 Challenger Shaker. Just got srt8 brembo caliper set front and rear. Sandblasted and ready to be powder coated. The question is, Do I need to get srt8 spindles to fit the caliper i have? My wheels are 20"
Late to the party but I love the video! Great job with the install. Now that you've had it for a year do you think it would've been better going with the 6 piston Brembos?
Not late to the party at all! 😁 but yes I will be going with the 6 Pistons once I Cam and supercharge this build. Then once I get the 6 pistons I'm gonna give the 4 pistons away to a V6 or RT in need😁
Sorry to ask but the only video I see people still asking, I was told for better rim clearance in the front to replace my front spindles on my RT 2017 for srt as they " have more clearance " but I'm wondering if I don't want to do the Brembo upgrade just yet can I use the regular brakes on the srt spindle.
I honestly don't know, I would think no because the SRT mounting points are set up to run a larger rotor so I would assume there would be an issue. I say just wait until you have the brembos and everything you need for the front
Not yet still settling into the new house and work/the newborn. But once I get back into a routine I'll be on the hunt for the rear spindles and ill make a video
Im late to the Party but Question? I have a 2015 Dodge Challenger Rt looking to upgrade my brakes, do i have to switch out my brake line in order to install the Brembos.
Quick question I just bought some 22in hellcat replicas they came off a 2019 charger but my charger is a 2012 sxt do I need to do the swap so the rim's can fit
hello love the vid need to know on the rear spindles in stalled do u need to shange them for brembo calipers or can the go on the r/t spindles has any made a vid on that install please
Hey I have 2011 RT charger and picked up a 2015 scat pack 6 piston front and 4 piston rear, looking to add the kit to the car since we’re running 470 to the rear wheel and got the kit for a stupid deal. What spindles would I need to make this work, front and rear? Thank you in advance
What year spindle can i use on a 14 srt8 charger as i bent my oem spindle nd need to replace it !! I hurd all 2006-2014 will fit? Let me jnw what u think
I know this video is old but I'm trying to do this on my 09 charger rt, I have brembo breaks and rotors from a 2017 challenger, what spindles do I need???
If u wanna upgrade the brake sistem from diferent car is it possible let’s say can u go from hellcat brake and rotors and put them on a mustang or camaro ? Is that will be a problem or it won’t fit or any other issues?
Firstly thats a sicks profile picture you have. But thats a really good question, im not sure honestly. So are you trying to swap dodge specific brakes on a mustang?
Drop Top Performance nor really im just putting the example if it will be a problem to have brakes that came of from hole different car and put them on a different car changing brakes and rotors
Drop Top Performance let say i found out a set up of brakes and rotors that came off of a hellcat challenger and i wanna put them on a camaro 3.6L or 2.0 can i do that ir i can only do upgrades on brake sistem from the same type of cars so if i wanna do upgrade a camaro set up it has to be from a camaro set up or if is a mustang it has to be from mustang etc.
So I would believe that the mounting tabs would be in a different location and also the rotor size might be different. But im really not sure to be honest.
Did you do the rears yet? I have everything except for the drivers side rear knuckle. Cant seem to find one at a decent price. Ive been hearing that the rears are tough.

i totally agree, They are way to heavy not too HaHa
If you wanted to go wit the 6 piston brembo those spindles are compatible. Rears stay the same.
Unfortunately the 6 pistons were out of my price range at the time. However I will be upgrading to them in the next year or so.

Thanks man, and there are definitely different ways to improve braking. But for $800 I couldn't pass it up! Still looking for rear spindles though 🙃
In Canada our bone yards have decent deals on different brembos but cost wise the br9 is the best bang for buck. You just don't get the red block calipers.
My Charger needs this mod pretty badly. Also seems like a good time to do suspension.
One of the best upgrades I've done!
Brembos are the way to go. Good stuff bro.
Oh man a huge difference!
Until its time to replace, its expensive as fuck. But if you ballin money aint shit. Im ball on a budget.
thanks for the walkthrough, have a like. Also, single best thing to do on your new srt brakes, good set of pads. Try carbotechs, etc.
I want to do this mod so bad but can't seem to find spindles for a reasonable price anywhere. Good deal bro 👍
Yeah man that's why I haven't done the rears yet. But just be patient and you'll find a set!
@@DropTopPerformance why not just replace the wheel hubs and rotors with the SRT8 for those brakes ? Do you really have to do all that in order to have SRT quality front brakes?
@@jlrockafella unfortunately yes you have to replace the spindles. The mounting point is different for the brembos
You wont until people stop buying them up. Supply demand sucks.

Not the width, it's the backspace.
I haven't turbocharged my SXT yet, but damn, for flare I think I'd definitely want to upgrade to this, I've noticed how meh the stock brake rotors have looked
enjoying the choice of songs !
when i here any song like these i get flashbacks from when i use to trickshot on bo2 and watch dubstepzzz
Really hardworking ,,, consumes lots of time n energy , but worth doing it , good video
It is defiantly worth it! i hope it helped!
I have the same red leather seats in my 2014 r/t I love it here 🥰
Quick question will 2007 charger SRT Brembos bolt directly on my 2015 charger RT Road and Track? I'm getting everything from SRT spindles front and rear disks, pads, brake line and 4 brembo calipers etc.
Yes, mine came off a 2010 srt8
i have question i have charger rt 2019 i whanna install brembo 6 piston & i whanna know if i can used the same brake line of rt to brembo calipers & the bolt
Yes you can
I just finished doing that swap. Make sure the brake line is attached to the caliper when you buy it. The stock rt caliper brake line will not transfer over. but the mounting point on the wheel well is a direct fit.
You should put the prices
Will the 2006 srt spindles work? I’m hearing some conflicting answers saying the 2006 were different than the 2008+
I need Brembos in my life, Im always on Cleveland pick-a-part's site looking for the right price lol!
Its an awesome upgrade for sure!
check lxforums from time to time
i have the same ones and the rotors how much u offer?
I've been looking for a video like this for awhile. I always wondered if it was possible. Thanks bro good detail video! Mopar👊🏿 you definitely just gained a new follower.. @Drethehardway
Will I need to change brake lines ans sensors on the rear? Or the front?
you ever found that answer?
Awesome 😎 definitely have to do this. Good demonstration as well. Definitely subscribing to your channel.
Thanks for this video and very informative. But I am wondering what is the reason for replacing the spindles.
Thanks! You have to change spindles because of the mounting location of the brembos
People when he said he had to gt it pressed out well all he had to do was put the nut back on till its level with the bolt then hit the nut with your hammer till it pops off then remove the nut and wala.😎
Looks well worth the time and effort. Nice job. Looks great!!!
It stops on a dime now!!!
DropTopProductions Awesome 👍👍
I noticed you took off the dust shield and didnt put it back on ? do you not need them ?
I haven't had any issues since i have done the swap
@@DropTopPerformance What about the brake lines? I thought out R/Ts wouldnt work with the SRTs?
I’m about upgrade my R/T Brakes also, great video
Hope it helped!
BLC HEMI same here 💯🔥
i have that set i can sell to you
Mena Fode I’ll buy them?
@@secretlifeofgia1 let me know whats the best way
Got a 2019 Challenger RT. So if I get all the parts off a 07 and up SRT Charger/Challenger will it fit?
Will I need to change my stock wheels which are 20x8?
Yes it will work, the wheels need to be 20" to clear the Brembos so you'll be fine!
Drop Top Performance could I use stock spindles ? I have 2019 challenger sxt 20” wheels
@@isaacbyrd8504 you need SRT spindles
Drop Top Performance why do we need srt spindles
Can the SRT Brembo clear police rims
I am not sure, I have 20" hellcat reps
What idk about is how come it couldn't be done on the original knuckle..can anybody explain this to me pls?
Because of the location of the mounting points are different.
Good work nice job
what size rim are you using..?..i have 17 inch rims will these work..?.
I run a 20" i honestly don't think a 17" would clear the Brembos
@@DropTopPerformance ok thank you
Would you happen to remember if the Caliper mounting bolts were the same ones you used to put the brembos on?
Does it matter what year of spindles/Brembo brakes you buy? For instance, I have a Challenger R/T Plus. I found a take off from a 2006 Chrysler 300 SRT. Any difference in years. Any difference in Chassis as for as Challenger vs Charger vs 300?
So I dont think so, then ones on my car are from a 2009 challenger SRT8 and I had no issues.
Would the brembos off a 09 srt8 work on my 2017 charger rt?
I just got my front spindles put on. Did you use the same bolts that mount the old calipers to mount the brembos, they seem to be the same. Also, there are no axle nuts up front right?
Yup I just used the same 2 bolts and she was good to go!😁
I did the same thing you did in the video but it didnt work on my car because the tire ring rubs on the caliper, i bought the spindle and everything. I really need your help.
What size wheels do you have, you should have 20s to fit the bigger brakes.
I have 2016 Challenger Shaker. Just got srt8 brembo caliper set front and rear. Sandblasted and ready to be powder coated. The question is, Do I need to get srt8 spindles to fit the caliper i have?
My wheels are 20"
Great job and thanks for the tutorial my man.
No problem 👍
Late to the party but I love the video! Great job with the install.
Now that you've had it for a year do you think it would've been better going with the 6 piston Brembos?
Not late to the party at all! 😁 but yes I will be going with the 6 Pistons once I Cam and supercharge this build. Then once I get the 6 pistons I'm gonna give the 4 pistons away to a V6 or RT in need😁
DropTopProductions I call dibs!!!
@@MoparGuy1625 hahaha I'll have to be fair and give everyone a shot😁
Drop Top Performance yes to me thanks very much definitely in need of those.
can you list the spindles and parts you bought? I want to upgrade my v6 2018charger without buying spacers etc.
Kevin Kherkher I got an app called carparts.com that’s basically all the junkyards in the US. That’s how I found my spindles and knuckles
Why is changing the spindles necessary ?
The mounting points are different with the Brembos
Thanks man!
That's was so hopeful, What about the six pistons brake is it the same process?
Total cost? i must have missed it. I might just go Mopar big brake kit like the popos use
I sourced all my parts and was really patient. I believe total was about 800
What year spindles wouldn't be compatible for those brembos. Cause I have 16 scat pack brembos
As long as you have spindles from an SRT car you will be good to go
Sorry to ask but the only video I see people still asking, I was told for better rim clearance in the front to replace my front spindles on my RT 2017 for srt as they " have more clearance " but I'm wondering if I don't want to do the Brembo upgrade just yet can I use the regular brakes on the srt spindle.
I honestly don't know, I would think no because the SRT mounting points are set up to run a larger rotor so I would assume there would be an issue. I say just wait until you have the brembos and everything you need for the front
Plus that is a little thin spindle and will snap watch
Been on there for over a year and have had multiple track days not to mention the thousands of mile on the Autobahn seems to be just fine🤷♂️
Someone sounds like a hater. If it came off a srt then it's designed to handle the power. Probably thinner to help cut down on weight 🙄
I really want to do this to my 05 Magnum R/T!
You should, honestly the best mod I have done to the car
It looks like you installed an entirely new brake line or did you just clean up the old one?
Did you do the rears?
Not yet still settling into the new house and work/the newborn. But once I get back into a routine I'll be on the hunt for the rear spindles and ill make a video
Any updates on the rear?
Im late to the Party but Question? I have a 2015 Dodge Challenger Rt looking to upgrade my brakes, do i have to switch out my brake line in order to install the Brembos.
I'm looking to do something like this for 07 Chrysler Aspen 5.7
What kind pf calipers are those, are they brembos? If so where did you get them?
Yes they are brembos off of a 2010 300 SRT
Does it matter from what Srt its from, for example would a jeep cherokee srt8 spindle work?
@@josesalas6015 I honestly don't know about jeeps
Can the spindles be from a 2013 srt ?
Yes sir
Does an srt spindle work or does it have to be a specific srt serial number on it?
Quick question I just bought some 22in hellcat replicas they came off a 2019 charger but my charger is a 2012 sxt do I need to do the swap so the rim's can fit
No sir, your new wheels should fit just fine, same bolt pattern
They rubbing up against the knuckles
@@ryanreddix2460 what part of the knuckle?
The top edge of the rim it self
Do you NEED to change the spindles ? Great vid tho!
Unfortunately yes because of the mounting points of the Brembos.
But would I need the whole arm too or just be knuckle
@@DropTopPerformance Is it necessary to change the rear spindles also?
What year could I use on my 14????
My car is a 2012 and I used parts off a 2010 300 srt 8
hello love the vid need to know on the rear spindles in stalled do u need to shange them for brembo calipers or can the go on the r/t spindles has any made a vid on that install please
still don't get that answer?
I have a 2018 Daytona Charger, can I keep the stock spindles or do I need to change them?
You will have to get SRT spindles
Cool, what size rims? Looks perfect bro
20" hellcat reps, no issues with clearance
Hey I have 2011 RT charger and picked up a 2015 scat pack 6 piston front and 4 piston rear, looking to add the kit to the car since we’re running 470 to the rear wheel and got the kit for a stupid deal. What spindles would I need to make this work, front and rear?

Thats awesome man! But any SRT spindle will work
So even a 2015 hellcat spindle? And I also have a pick on a 2008 spindle would either one work. Sorry and thank you again for your input
@@RazereDgeX yup as long as its a spindle that has the correct mounting point for the Brembos

Question do have to change the spindles? 2 will srt8 brake work fit on on a durango?
So is it even possible To but 08 brembos and spindles on a 2013 sxt challenger
Yes, mine are off a 2010
So u put a weaker spindle on
Dont really see how its weaker, maybe you know something I dont 🤷♂️
Question I’m buying the pieces for my 2019 Durango R/T do I really need all 4spindles to make the transfer to the srt8 brakes and caliper set
Do you have the hellcat hood on your car
Unfortunately not, I have modified my original hood Using hellcat vents tho. I have a video about it
Music hurt Franky ears 😠 Franky mad 😡
Can’t you buy an adapter instead of replacing the whole steering knuckle ?
How long did it take you from the time you removed tire to putting tire back on?
About 3 hours
I got a question man why did you need to change the spindle for ?
Do you have to change the spindle
You sure do
Is it possible to upgrade my dodge charger sxt's factory brake calipers into 4 piston or 6 piston brake calipers ?
did you have to change out brake lines?
I did not, but I'll probably upgrade to braided lines soon
Does this apply to the Durango as well?
I know now to look for SRT8 spindles to transform my R/T breaking system
I know this video is old but I'm trying to do this on my 09 charger rt, I have brembo breaks and rotors from a 2017 challenger, what spindles do I need???
I have a question, do I have to replace the spindels in the 2011+ Durango?
Do I need to get new spindles and will the new breaks fit over the stock R/T wheels?
Can I just use the calibers or do I have to use everything you put on?
If u wanna upgrade the brake sistem from diferent car is it possible let’s say can u go from hellcat brake and rotors and put them on a mustang or camaro ? Is that will be a problem or it won’t fit or any other issues?

@@nickrichmond1978 that's good news man that's less money out your pocket 💪🏼

Did you use same bolts to hold the caliper with spindle??
Where did you find those spindles for your car? I have a Durango gt and I’m trying to upgrade it to brembo brakes and calipers.

Thanks man!!
ball park what’s the price for everything? nice work by the way
you could probably do it for under 1k i was looking for months and did mine for about 800

Yes i will just waiting to find a good deal on rear spindles, but not in a rush they aren't as important as the fronts lol
was it hard to bleed the brakes after ..?
Where can I buy brembo calipers?
