ok, so this is now the second time i have lost brakes due to this. on my power booster, it has a threaded/adjustable end that goes out of the booster and into the master cylender. you can adjust it for brake pedal travel/feel. reman a-body 73 booster problem is, it keep adjusting itself to...

what too slow said is true, to a point. the ultimate factor in stopping distance is tire grip. that being said, the way to maximise tire grip during braking is multifold. weight transfer, brake bias, etc all play a factor into this. modulation is also key, which in this discussion is where i...

sounds like either restricted lines, or the wronc master cyl bore. what size bore are you running now?

so i noticed while i had my front end apart that my slider calipers are wearing the outside pads considerably more than the inside pads. is this normal for these brake systems? also, does anyone have the lubrication points, etc for these brakes? seems to me like theyre not sliding on the...

it wound up being a bad booster. when i replaced it, i started another thread about the improper functioning characteristics with a low pedal, no travel between barely on and full lock, etc. i had figured out that the push rod was not adjusted properly. also, uve never seen a return...

yup, i did. when i have questions, i usually post here and moparts. got it figured out tuesday night. the threaded adjuster between the booster and master needed threaded out. after some fiddling and testing, the brakes work great.

so i finished getting the power brakes bled, replaced the booster with a new one from the parts store. they work great. only problem is that they are a little unnerving to drive. they have a lot of free play before the brakes begin to slow down the car. like 3-4 inches. then, when the brakes...

finished bleeding the power brake swap tonight. used booster, new master. new check valve. when i fired up the car, the pedal sank to the floor, and has no movement in it whatsoever. shut off the car, and after a while, the pedal came back up. did it a few times. im trying to figure out whats...

figured out a way to test my booster, and tried it tonight. hooked a long hose up to the power brake bung on the intake of my truck. hooked other end to the larger of the 2 ports on the check valve. (by the way, this is after i removed the master to check for rod operation, and lighten the...

getting ready to do my power brake conversion on my 70 duster. couple of quick questions. 1. at idle, i have anywhere from 11-15 in of vacuum. it isn't stable, but i believe that that was due to my testing equipment. using my mityvac as a gauge, and the manifold vacuum port on the front of my...

well, what im trying to do is to find a junkyard sourced hub for using in my 13 inch rotor conversion. beats having to create my own from a set of discs. the car will have two piston PBR calipers and 13 inch cobra rotors. Michael

i was wonderin if anyone knew.... im running f/m/j spindles. of course, disc brake. is there a drum brake hub and bearing package that will bolt to this spindle and save me the hassle of making my own hubs? michael

ok, so if im understaniding this corretly, 98 grand cherokee rear discs will fit the 8 3/4 with bbp axles, right? i was thinking that the whole way through this thread, as i am currently running drums and backing plates off a bbp 8 1/4 on mine. i have green bearings. will this setup work...

im thinking of swapping my 70 duster out to power brakes. ive already done the 11.75 front rotor swap with slider calipers, and 11X3 rear drums. it stops pretty well, just requires a bunch of pedal pressure. my knees arent getting any better, and its just not that fun to drive the manuals...
