Ok so I would like to keep the front brakes going through the in-line tube prop valve, and I want to plug the rear brake ports of the inline tube prop valve, then run a separate line from the master to the adjustable prop valve to the rear brakes, would putting plugs into the rear inlet & outlet...

5 years old SS from inline tube, we cracked the line lose from where the ss line and the hose goes together and the brakes released making us assume it was the master cylinder so I replaced that but it is still doing it. so it's not the hose.

Hello and thanks for any help/ideas, here is my problem, the rear brakes (drum) drag to the point that the drums get so hot they burn the paint off, but like this morning I drove approx. 20 miles no problem, then on the way home they heated up big time, this is what I have done, all new/reman...

DING DING rock auto is THE place!!

^^^^ x2^^^

well you need a adjustable proportioning valve, my duster was doing the same thing so I bought one, didn't install it as I found out my axle was leaking fluid the shoes were coated with gear lube and that was causing my issues, if your not leaking oil onto the shoes than you might need the prop...

So let me rethink a little here, does it seem BOTH front brakes are sticking or only one, if it is only one then red67gts might have something, are all the rubber brake hose hold downs still on and where they should be?? could be a pinched brake line when you corner, if your missing the hose...

Personally I am thinking your prop valve which I am sure is original is either plugged, rusty, who knows, but that has to be your issue, and if it is the booster why only the front brakes?? I had my passanger side rear brake stick then not then stick, turns out I at one point had water in my...

I got mine from in-line tube check here: http://inlinetube.com/Prop%20Valves/BLK245.htm

Sound like a proportionary valve to me, he has changed all that stuff and it is still doing it, pretty sure thats the issue, it's the only thing he hasn't changed.

rock auto maybe??? I got mine, (had to order them)from advance auto took one day, ordered them on friday had em saturday. good luck oh and if it were me I would buy a set of 2 cause your other one might crap out next week, or at least thats what happens to me, maybe I just have bad luck....

how do you know they changed from drum to disc?? I have a 74 duster and mine came with discs from the factory.

I had this happen to me last month, Turned out that the wheel cylinder had rust in the bore, when you rebuilt them did you hone the cylinders with a brake hone??? if there is any wear or rust they are probabaly hanging up mine did, i got raybestes brake cylinders from Advance have not had any...

If i dont get it fixed tommorrow I'll post a pic of what my setup looks like thanks

I had a residue valve in an MC get plugged once and it would hold to much pressure in the wheels cylinder. Easy check is apply the brakes a few times and then crack the brake line fitting at the MC if you get a big squirt of fluid then your are holding pressure at the MC. dgc333 thanks for...

There is only a rubber hose from the brake line (metal tubing) to the distribution block on the axle, ( so the axle can move up and down) and THAT is a brand new SS line. so can't be that. but keep the idea's commin...

well thanks for the idea's. I am going to replace the "new" wheel cylinder with another, and try to figure out how the wheel adjuster could be tightening on it's own, other then that I am stumped, if the resdual valve in the master cylinder was not working corectly wouldn't both brakes be dragging??

Not the springs, I always buy a spring kit with the brake shoes.

War wagon, I was thinking that as i made sure the drum turned freely, and now it is tight, so that might be what is happening, so I am trying to figure out how to hold the self adjuster tight so it will not turn/tighten.

Heres what is happening after driving a short distance, stop and go traffic for instance, the right rear drum brake starts to drag, not lock-up but drag enough that the drum gets so hot it baked the paint off, and smokes, now it did this before I replaced the following and is still doing it: new...
