Sorry I haven't gotten back sooner, but have been working on the rear end and some projects around the house. Sounds like I don't have anything to worry about so will bolt everything up and drive on down the road! Quick question, has anyone changed out the emergency brake cables on their 1965...

Thanks for info. Could you tell me what an indication of the brake shoes not returning would be or how much of the wear pad is worn off to have repairs made? There is no grove, but I can feel a difference in height from the worn area to the original height of the wear pad. Am I looking for a...

Seems like I read had read something about pads can wear down over time and effect the way the brake shoe works. Just wondering! And shoes are 10 x 1 3/4. Thanks, guess there is no need to worry!!

Have a 1965 Dart GT that I had to pull the differential out. Saw that the wheel cylinders are leaking and noticed on tear down that the wear pads that the lower part of the brake shoes ride on are looking worn. There is a ridge that you can feel. Is there a way to tell when to replace the...

I have a 1965 Dodge Dart GT that I have been working on and driving for about 18 years now. Last year it began to make a noise that sounded like metal on metal when I would back it up for the first time that I would take it out for a drive. Now it would not make a noise every time which made...

Thanks for the tips. Will try one and see how it works.

Can anyone give me some ideas on how to keep the master cylinder in my 1965 Dart from getting coated in rust? Tired of that rusty look when you pop the hood.

I knew that someone would be able to answer my question. Just did not look right and wanted to be sure brakes were correct. Thanks!!

All right guys I need your help again!!!! I have a 1965 Dart GT and need your help about the brakes on the rear and front. When I got the car the rear end had been changed out to a 8 3/4, axle number 2881489 with Borg Warner Spin Resistant. Can someone tell me what size brake drum and shoe...

Thanks for your help. Will now be able to find what I need.

I have a 1965 Dodge Dart GT with drum brakes front and rear. I am changing out the wheel cylinders and would also like to replace some parts that I do not know the name of or where to purchase them. The parts are the slotted pins that come out of the wheel cylinders and push against the top...

Strut rod bushings are good. Rebuilt the front end about a year and a half ago. Everything looks and feels tight. Going to look for a shop to return the drums. Learning curve is on going working on an old car. Will let you know what happens. Thanks again for the help.

I have pulled drums and inspected the brakes. Found nothing wrong with the brake assembly. Also checked the front suspension, transmission mount, engine mounts, sway bar. Found nothing loose or worn out. Only thing I have found is the face of the drums look, feel like an old 45 record. I...

I need some help. I have a 1965 Dart GT with a Charger 273 and 904 transmission. The other day when I applied the brakes there was a knocking sound coming from the front of the car. Has been about two years ago, wheel cylinders, shoes, springs, and had drums turned. Seems like I read...
