Thanks, I have the master cylinder and push rod from my old car as I stripped it out. I think I'll give it a go. Cley

Sorry, should have mentioned, Stock disc/drum on 74 Duster. Cley

My first Duster had manual brakes and I don't remember it being a problem in the least. My current Duster has power brakes and it stops great but the booster is a huge pain in the *** when working on the motor! Has anyone switched from power to manual brakes? Do you regret it? Cley

Please update us when you have a few miles on them! Cley

I think the problems usually arise from the cables seizing up form non-use. Most auto trans guys rarely use their e-brake. Cley

I do but that is only because I just finished reassembling the car with all new e-brake parts. They will likely never get used and will likely be seized up if they were ever needed. Cley

That is a nice clean install for sure! Cley

Thanks for all the great information. The problem was in a crushed rear hose. I had pinched it off to save a mess when swapping the rear ends out. I never imagined it wouldn't bounce back. Fortunately I had a new rear hose in the cupboard so I am all bled and good to go now. I guess I'll find...

And I do have the combo prop valve. Cley

I didn't check there yet. I started in approximately the middle (output to rear brakes at dist block) but couldn't crack the fitting. I was hoping to prove output of fluid at that point. I did notice however that when I pump the brake pedal I see a bit of fluid jump in small reservoir. Cley

What was the problem that prompted you to rebuild yours? Cley

Thank you very much. That really helps. Cley

The patient - 74 Plymouth Duster, Factory 318 car with power disc/drum brakes. I bought the car disassembled but the brake system was together and intact so I don't know if it ever worked 100% when the car was taken off the road for restoration. The problem - No fluid getting to the back...

You know, I layed in the car for a while with my head under the dash looking at it and that's the only place I could see it going, but it just didn't seem to be correct. I knew I had the right switch, I guess I just over thought the whole thing. Thanks for the help Cley

Does anyone have a photo of where the switch mounts to the E-brake assembly under the dash on a 74 Duster? Cley

I'd love to see some pics when you start your install. Cley

Thanks guys, they are 10" x 2 1/2".

How do i tell if I have 9" or 10" brakes on my 8 1/4 diff from a 74 Duster? I'm thinking diagonally across the machined surface, but not sure. Anyone? Cley
