No problems with inline tube for me.

I've got the Summit brand and no problems at all. I dont use it regularly, but its held up great so far.

Where you missing that rubber piece on the end of the push rod that goes into the MC?

Conversation coming.

Correct. I never had the levers. If you have them that would be awesome, just let me know.

But I've rode with you.. I know why you need them. :poke: Well, time to search for some parts. I do not have any of the guts for my drums (10 x 2.5"). Thanks all for the reply. Much appreciate for the input from everyone.

Thats a good point Sam!

Very interesting to see that everyone has them hooked up. Im actually kind of surprised.

I've thought about it gathering all the parts, but then again I havent needed them in 3 years.

Its not required for inspection here and I dont even have the parts to make mine operational. So just curious how many people actually have theirs hooked up.

Who here actually has working parking brakes on your automatic cars? No not your new car, Im talking your Dart, Duster, etc....

Hi Mark, I got a hold of Cass (Dr. Diff). He is sending me out the bushing for $5 shipped. I cant go wrong with that.. Thanks for you suggestion though.

Yep, that is the one. Thats not a bad price. I'll call him up. I looked on his site and didnt see any but I'll make a phone call. I did install a new MC, but that was 3 years ago.. It didnt come with it and I've been driving with out one ever since.. I just thought about it and started...

Nuff, said. Will do and thanks for the input.

Other than ordering one thru Mancini's and paying more for shipping than the part. Is there something at home I can use to make a similar bushing? Or is it advised to just order that one?

Here are a couple articles using Jeep Grand Cherokee disk brakes. rear disc from grand cherokee on a 8 3/4 Jeep rear discs on an 8 3/4 axle solution

Yes, Im sure he will be able to sell it off, more than likely to some other racer at the track. Wait Im running a 15/16" bore... LOL

Yep, you did, but who is to argue with the company that is supposed to know the parts they sell, and sizes it for you.. It also sucks they wont take it back and they make you buy another one.

Update: My brother has a good pedal now, just the way it should be, high and firm. After I left, he tried a few more things. Finally getting fed up he called Wilwood back to talk to them. The MC that they recommended was not big enough. He had to go to the 1-1/8" bore like Purple Haze had to...

Sorry, been busy and I have not been able to call my brother for the part# of the MC he got. I did try the pump up method. It was consistent, same pressure in the pedal and could push it to the floor. It never had that hard, then soft feeling. No rubber lines, on the car, any of the...

I'll get a hold of my brother and double check the part# with him. Thanks Roy and Purple Haze for your input.

Thanks Roy for your input. I can always suggest that to him to try.

Im positive it was a 15/16" bore for manual brakes. The pedal does return fully. I was thinking perhaps the pushrod was not adjusted right, but there is no slop in it..

So I spent the day on Saturday working on the brakes for my brothers drag car. He installed all brand new Wilwood up front and Strange in the rear, 4 piston calipers with 4 bleeds on them. Also a new Wilwood M/C, which was recommended by Wilwood for a 4 disc set up. We bench bled the M/C...

Well good to know! Its not hard to get the rod out so I think I will put RTV in and call it good.

When I replaced the MC on my car my rod did not have one on it. I couldnt find one so I just stuck the rod back in.. I have not noticed any issues not having it and its been that way for 2 years.

Awesome... Sometimes its just the silliest things that get ya.

Ditto, above.. The cylinder came out of the MC. Grab the silver cylinder and twist and pull. The push rod should slide out, but may take some force. Yes you should be able to reuse your original pushrod.

Thanks, and thanks for the reply

I swapped my calipers to the rear instead of the front on my car, because of the 73 up disc brake conversion and using the 72 down sway bar. With that said I've read to install F-body brake hoses. I already have 73 braided brake lines, I decided to install them to check binding and there...
