1963 Dart 170 2 Door Post Resto
Well, guess I should have expected it... Two steps forward, one step back. Got the rear diff filled last night. Took just under one liter of oil before coming out the fill hole.
Found my missing dart emblem I bought and installed it.
Here comes the backwards...
Bled the brakes. Rears went super easy. Very little dirt before nice clean fluid. All rubber components are new. Metal lines were nice and clean so I ran with them. Blew out the rear lines when it was apart and they were good. No signs of corrosion or dirt. Didn't do the front... Big mistake. Drivers side went perfect. No dirt and bleed nice. By this time I had a solid pedal. Figured I shouldn't be solid quite yet as I still had passenger front to do but didn't think too much into it. Went to bleed it and couldn't get fluid to flow. Got a dribble at best. Tried for a while. No dice. Then decided to crack the line at the rubber flex to crossover metal. Pretty much same deal. Tiny bit of fluid. No where near what I should have gotten. Then I cracked it at the distribution block. Seems like I am getting decent fluid here. Not full flow but it was only cracked a quarter to half turn at best.
I guess I am replacing the front metal crossover line. Gonna be a pain as all the wiring and linkages are hooked up now. Surprised that it would be plugged for how clean everything else was. Arizona car so super dry. I guess I'll find out for sure when I pull it apart to replace.
Anyone know what size the fittings are and what size and length the crossover line is? Want to reproduce it as exact as I can.
Hopefully this resolves it. This is the last step to be 100% complete mechanically.
