    Brake bias?

    You read my mind, a residual pressure valve was going to be my next step.

    Brake bias?

    Dodge Freak, I've had it on the hoist and tried exactly what you mentioned, rears are working but it does require a fair bit of pedal. Rear wheel cylinders are new, reservoir level doesn't drop and the pedal stays firm. I bleed the rears a couple of times thinking it was air. Maybe it's just the...

    Brake bias?

    1967 Dart , power booster(new), KH 4 piston front disc brakes with 9" rear drums, no rear proportioning or hold off valve. The problem is it feels like the rear drums aren't really doing anything when it comes to stopping-I know 9" drums are the best but you should feel some braking. I've...

    I ran one on my built 454 with Baer serious street 4 wheel disc brakes. Before with the standard vacuum booster it felt like the brakes really weren't coming on the way they should, with the hydroboost the brakes start working the second you touch the pedal, stopping action is right there, no...

    Steering Wheel Restoration

    I've used the POR 15 epoxy putty and the PC7 epoxy kit that Eastwood sell many times before, on the steering wheels from the 50's and 60's they always crack again next to the repair, it's only a fine crack line but enough to ruin the appearance. Maybe the plastic welders you see advertised for...

    Part lost in the mail

    Frank, I'll look through ebay again, spent 2 months prior searching and found nothing other than the battery tray brace( looks similar) and the lower fender to frame brace inkjunkie, The only reason for using USPS as a Canadian is they don't charge brokerage fee's on items coming into Canada...

    Part lost in the mail

    I sent a front fender brace to a fellow in Georgia so he could use it as a sample to start reproducing the part BUT either Canada Post or USPS has lost it. Worst part is I borrowed it from a friend!!If anyone has a spare brace you want to sell, it's for a 67 Dart but probably the same right up...
