what upgraded pads did you use

I did bubble flares with a cheapie HF kit on my 03 Dakota. There is a YouTube video showing how, it worked great to my surprise.

The harbor freight one works fine for me, plus if you don't like it return it. Buy the better brake line I think dark green in color easier to bend and flare plus a better protective coating.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last time I did my sbp rear brakes I got everything From napa, except the drums.

The vacuum pumps work good.

Ya I need front brakes for my demon! Lookin for late 70's 11.75" like off st Regis or so everything between the upper and lower arms. Where is il are you? I'm in Aurora IL, nothing older than 1995 in these yards! LMK ...

I not 100% but I think if you can find a older 70's early 80's B,C,F, body with front 10.5" or 11" disc you can take that whole setup between the control arms and put it on the front of your car using doc diff upper ball joint spacers and the 73 and later lower ball joints. for the back I think...

If it's the original try rebuding it. It's easy! Getting a remanufactured anything from the part stores are hit or miss now.

The new one may be just as bad, before installing use a full sheet of 100 or 150 grit sand paper and in a figure 8 clean up the top of the master where the gasket touches. Of course make sure you clean it up good.

I think someone said rock auto has a few.

Some of these castings where the gasket sits are ruff and slightly uneven. It's best to use brake cleaner to completely dry the gasket and casting then make sure the bail wire is tight you can slightly bend it to make it tighter. The other thing you can do it take the master off and on a flat...

I think you will want the caliper bleeders towed the top or you will have problems getting all the air out.

What rotor and caliper are you using I thought they were Chevy celebrity ones, but on the site they say Toyota Previa????

exactly how much longer will the 73 and up stuff be available, this may be the way i go soon might as well go 4.5" and then use 15" rims so i can find tires!

Does anyone make a kit like this for the 10" drum brakes?

Correct, the silicone type will not absorb there for on low spots in the brake lines water may collect and corrode. Both have advantages and disadvantages one is not really better than the other.

5.7 is correct, i pulled a 440 out of a 74 or 75 C and was shocked when i seen the rear disc, as a young 20yo

I had black drums behind your Cragars!!

try a new rear brake hose, if that does not work disconnect the emergency brake

heres one off a 73, also but not 100% BTW its for sale if interested.

it looks right, non of them are going to look correct to someone who knows what a oem original one looks like.
