A-Body Round #2- My '76 Scamp restore...
Got the new master cylinder bench bled and the short lines hooked from it to the proportional valve, so now all the brake lines are connected. Went ahead and installed the pads in the calipers. Put the gear oil and friction modifier in the rear end housing. Got the emergency brake cables connected. And got the caliper bolts all loctited and torqued to spec... its back on the jackstands with the front high and rear low since I'm gonna try the gravity bleed method to fill the lines. I've got more time than help available, so hopefully it works for filling the whole system.
Also got the new driveshaft ordered and it should ship early next week from these guys I found a recommendation for here on this forum. Driveshaft Specialist Home
This weekend will be trying to get fluid into the brake system and bled, and hopefully getting the hellwig sway bar mounted on the front... seems I'm getting dangerously close to being able to drive it again soon.
