I guess they are 73 and up A body spindles. Looks like I'm good. Thanks everyone for the info

Casting numbers and side view Found your add, there drum spindles, need disk.

I was looking at my set up today and notice that I have the shorter b body spindles. Is this a problem? Everything that I could find said that the upper control arm angle would be different. I did say the tall ones were preferred, but didn't really say don't use the shorter ones. Do I need to...

With closer inspection, calipers are on the wrong side. I should of looked closer.

Thanks, I'll try that this weekend. Its got to be air trapped, like is said it was fine a two weeks ago with old set up having good peddle pressure and all for corners stopping just fine. Then I removed all the lines+proportion valve and install the new distribution block proportioning valve set...

Yes, I having to pump them 20-30 times to get a hard peddle. .

I check the pad adjustment and it was ok, but I removed one rear drum to see if anything look odd. Well, looks like cylinder is sucked in. I used a vacuum brake bleeder to help me since all the lines were dry.

Could I have air trapped in the middle of a line? When I bleed them now I get a bubble free steam of fluid for all four corners. The calipers do have the bleeders on top. I checked all connection and did find any leaks, but I did have a geyser when pumping with caps off and saw some bubble come...

Just to make sure I bench bled the master cylinder and no air, so that's good. Then I tried pinching the rear brake hose, it made no difference to the peddle. So I removed it and pinched the driver side brake hose, again on change. This time I left that hose pinched and pinched the passenger...

Ok I will try that tomorrow, but I had good peddle and all was adjusted before swapping in the new lines and distribution block ect. I would be surprised if rear need adjusted, also same master cylinder never removed it and put plugs in when lines were removed form it.

OK let try to element any rants the might occur. My 67 barracuda with a 15/16" master cylinder, has a manual disk/drum brake swap which had a proportioning valve like in post #2, now has new line and distribution block/proportioning valve like in post #1. I bled the lines and don't seem to have...

I'm installing new brake lines and proportioning valves from theRightStuff. I have manual disk/drum set up on the car. Can some please label the attached pic to which line go's where and is this the right valve set up for manual disk brakes? I called after having the kit for some time, and they...

I had decided to switch back to manual brakes and when I removed the power brake booster, this is what I found. The studs have been cut short, the hole is opened up for the push rod, and I now have four extra hole going through my firewall. This might be the reason I was having problems with the...

Dose anyone know where to buy the cap that gets tapped in to the end of the rotor, sealing the bearing from road dirt and brake dust? Is it called a cap or cover? Can't find them anywhere, need 2.

thank you

What the difference between the lower ball joint on a 65-72 abody vs 73-76 abody? I'm in the process of a disk brake swap and my lower ball joint has a bolt pattern that is not wide or large enough for the spindles I installed. Could I have the wrong ball joint? I was told that this set up...

Here you go.

The new jegs line lock solenoid works great and I was able to install in much closer to the MC. I post some new pictures tonight.

Parts did not show up today from Jegs, but I'm leaving for the Carlisle National show tomorrow. I'll get back to work on the line lock when I get back.

I already have a new one on its way.

did that and would not stop air from passing through, but air is alot thinner than brake fluid so I didn't know.

The top line on the proportioning valve is from the MC/line lock and it is the rear port on the MC.

I will go take a quick picture.

I will go take a quick picture.

I installed a new summit line lock between the MC and proportioning valve. I hear it when I press the button, but it is not holding the front brake. It is on the back port of the MC and brake lines have been bled. It shoud just be a open/closed valve, so I hooked it up backward with the input in...

The car is in the body shop, so I can't mess with the brakes now. The guy at the shop look at them and could not find any leaks. I am woundering about the calipers now. I bought single piston caliper for a 74 dart at an auto store of a manufacturer that was going to stop selling them. I only...

I have tryed to differrent master cylinders, and all the hoses are new except the rear. Before doing the disk brake conversion, the drums work great and the car stop fine. I would think I should be able to get back to what I had before if not better. I am along way for having what I had with the...

Well, the car been the shop for about a week now and he can't fine anything wrong? He trying to push a powerboost unit on to me, but I tell he there is no room with the 440 in. I just cant believe that manual brakes only give a half peddle. You can step on the peddle and hit the gas and they...

I kind of did that with the master cylinder. I said that some thing was wrong with the rear brakes. I just ran out of time to work on it. I took it in yesterday to a local custom shop, a friend of mine who has done work for me before, cheep. He is also going to give me a price on finishing the...
