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

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?

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...

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...

Stumped a little with this problem. A coworker has a Jeep Wrangler. When he pushes on the brake pedal it goes to the floor. As soon as he pumps it a couple times he has good pressure and the pedal holds, and stays. He drives it to the next stop light or sign and it does the same thing. He...

Looking at picking up a line lock since I have my front brake system apart now, it will be easy to plumb. I was thinking of picking up the Summit solenoid and it has 1 inlet and 1 outlet. Other solenoids have 1 inlet and 2 or 3 outlets.. I plan on just locking the fronts and if Im mounting...

Ok, so here is the deal. I swapped from Power Brakes to Manual Brakes. I installed all new brake lines, proportioning valve, and MC. I hooked up the single wire that goes on the proportioning valve that I assume it activates the idiot light if you loose brake pressure. Well I have bled the...

Ok so like the title says I swapped over to manual brakes on my 71 Scamp. I have disc fronts, drum rears. I kept the stock proportioning valve. First off, I swapped to a 15/16" bore master cylinder from a 75 Dart, with manual brakes, which is brand new. Second, my brake light stays on the...

Hi guys, Im having trouble with getting my manual brakes to keep pressure. I have all new hard lines, proportioning valve, and master cylinder. I have noticed that the proportioning valve is leaking a little bit, but I cant seem to get it to stop. Everything is super tight. Actually more...

For those of you that are running manual brakes with the MC mounted to the fire wall. Is there a thin plate that goes between the firewall and the MC or is it just the firewall gasket?

I have a 71 Scamp, with power brakes and Im thinking of converting over to manual brakes. Has anyone ever done this? What all is needed? Can I keep the stock proportioning valve? By the looks of it the stock reservoir should bolt into place but not sure about the way the brake pedal would work...
