He replaced the hoses with the calipers........I'm gonna check the bearing myself........could be too tight I suppose, but it feels like the brakes........I'll crack the bleeder while I'm there and give her a whirl too.

Dart Sport with discs.........Left front was dragging a bit, pulling the car a little..........I had new calipers installed, and the mechanic agreed the left was hanging up a little. New ones in, and it still drags the same way. What gives? Disc thicker than the other? (actually, the one on...

I think what you guys have said makes sense........... The pedal was a little low the last time it was driven. Brakes worked, but the pedal wasn't right.........seems like a pin leak somewhere, wheel cylinder, etc............. But it has been sitting for months and months, and it's the...

Guys........... I just flew to NY for a memorial service, and had planned to drive my 67 Cuda while there. I took it for a spin to McD's for breakfast, and noticed the brake pedal was low.BUT, it seemed solid....just low......I figured an adjustment was in order, or I needed a little...

In the 70's, I ran N and P Stock/A Eliminator, and had both cars set up with simple line locks.......a very simple solenoid valve was installed on the main line that goes to the rear brakes. When you flipped the switch, the valve closed and the rear brakes were then null and void. We used the...

Still no clear direction here........... I want to control my front brakes with the pedal, but have the rear brake line blocked off for burnouts. Where should the line-lock be installed (far back, far forward?) and how much would be an average figure if I had a shop install it on my line...

Yeah, I wanted to lock the fronts normally using my pedal, with the rears effectively blocked from play by the line-lock.......simple toggle maybe, probably a momentary within reach of my left hand........ Any idea how much to install one? (I will do my own wiring).

Guys......... How much should I expect to have to spend on a decent line-lock setup for my 72 Demon, and how much would be average for a shop to install it? I'd really like to put one on the car........Anyone experienced here? :read2:

On my '74 Cuda, with 10" rear drums, I need a new "brake bar" spring.......the bar slips between the 2 shoes above the axle, and the small slotted end is held centered and in compressed in place by the retainer spring that goes between the bar and the shoe. Problem is that you don't get a new...

This just gets better.............. I got another call, and they said they couldn't find my 10" drums anywhere.................. I can find them myself, I said...............a little later, they had them...................... I just have to roll up my sleeves and start to do ALL of my...

The problem is that in Orlando, there ARE no "small" shops........I can not get a recommendation from ANYONE around here...........seems like they all want to just take you to the cleaners........... AND GET THIS NOW.......MEINEKE JUST CALLED, AND SAID THE OTHER SIDE WAS LEAKING ALSO........I...

The "Champ" used to say, "You won't pay a lot for that muffler..." at Meineke............. That may be the case for a stinking muffler, but it ain't for a brake job on your A-Body..............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get this.......... I took the car in for the following: Turn the rear drums...
