car is a 73 dart swinger that was orginally power disc and auto trans but converted to manual disk and 4 speed using parts from a 76 duster. The brakes are all bled out and feel good just the pedal is high. Its about an inch higher than the clutch pedal. The rod measures 6 1/4 inches from the...

I was at the shop the other day and saw a 94 4runner. To my amazement it had a 4 piston caliper! My first reaction was, those would rock on the dart. Anyway i did a bit of research and it looks possible. The 4 runner rotor diameter is 11.75 If I'm not mistaken you can swap bigger rotors from...

my brakes were working fine for 1000-2000 miles then the other day a light changed and I needed to stop pretty fast. got on the brakes and the drivers side front tire locked up and pulled hard left. took it easy the rest of the way home. It seems like sometimes it stops great and other times it...

When i push the brake pedal fast it sometimes makes a weird noise. I can feel it a bit in the pedal too. Its not a noise like something is loose. Its like a lower brrummpp kind of noise. Other than that I have my brakes working great.

my brake fluid looks dark and its got black crap floating in it. this is only in the front brake reservoir (the big one) Obviously this is an issue. But what is the issue do you think? Heres the "history" of the brakes. 7? years ago my dad rebuilt one side of the suspension and put a new...

do they go on top or below the plate? could this cause a spongy pedal?

so i put new calipers new wheel cylinders and new brake lines on (except the one that goes behind the engine but it doesent leak) and i cant get a firm pedal for the life of me. im thinking its possibly the master cylinder but i really dont know at this point. ive bled and bled and bled. ive...

im trying to replace my pads. i cant seem to figure out a good way to get the clip off the lever that the parking brake cable attaches to. any advice would be greatly appreciated.

anyone know where to get one cheap for a 73 dart with power disc brakes? all the ones i could find seemed a bit exspensive. also how hard would it be to bend my own? im sure knowing how to bend my own would help me out in the future.
