    75 Duster new brake pads won't fit

    75 Duster new brake pads won't fit

    Problem solved! So I bought a brake booster push rod adjustment tool to make sure the push rod is where it should be. I bench bled the MC again and still have the same problem. I bought a new MC from the auto parts store and problem solved! Thanks for the help and advice!
