It’s a front drum to disc conversion with a new MC, a stock push rod replacing an adjustable one and new hard and soft lines. I thought that perhaps the original adjustable push rod was too long thereby keeping some residual pressure on the MC, but the stock replacement (one piece) push rod was...

Correct; when we dry-out (tomorrow) I’ll have it in the driveway with the steering column bracket removed and the Wiring harness pulled out of the way so I can have a closer look at the brake pedal and switch. Thanks again,

Thanks everyone for your input, I greatly appreciate it! I’m not crazy about it, and I’m not proud of it as it’s not stock, but I installed a return spring on the pedal and it seems to help the situation a good bit. I noticed my brake lights were on after I shut down the car And got out. Thus...

What part? I’m in Columbia, SC

Thanks for looking; sorry they’re too narrow-would be nice to avoid a trip to the UPS Store!
