    I have front disc brake issue, front spindle mounting bolt hitting sway bar mount on MBM disc brake kit? Need your help

    I think your best bet is with @hemi71x he may can help you out with the correct bolts. I may have the bolts I will check but no guarantees I do have a few sets of 73 up spindles laying around so maybe.

    What front brake hoses on a 72 to 73 disk brake conversion

    I just did this very conversion on my 69’ bee. I used calipers and hoses for a 1980 volare with rear mount calipers and they worked like a charm.

    Never done it but you should be able to use a disc/drum master as long as you use wheel cylinders with the residual valves in them.

    New disc brake swap and calipers sticking

    you have a restriction In the front brake circuit somewhere. More than likely not both hoses more likely in the master or brake distribution block or metering valve. Can you post a pic of your plumbing?

    Proportioning Valve

    Bench bleeding on the car is easy just bend up a couple short lines with the correct fittings. Bend the lines so the ends are down in the fluid at all times then slowly pump the pedal

    Can anybody ID this Master Cylinder?

    I’m guessing you have single piston calipers on the front? These masters are used a lot on disc conversions although most go with the 7/8” bore master for less pedal effort.

    Can anybody ID this Master Cylinder?

    Casting number says 1971-74 all Mopars with power disc brakes.
  25. cudascott

    The right master cylinder.

    smaller the bore size= less pedal effort and more travel on the pedal usually the 7/8 (small)bore master is what you want.

    Rebleed Master Cylinder?

    If you pulled the reservoir dry you got air in the master. You can bleed the master in place with two short lines from the outlets turned down into the reservoirs make sure the open ends are below the fluid and pump away.
