Anybody know how long a brake pushrod is supposed to be? I bought an adjustable one, because I think the one I have is too short. But the adjustable one, even when it's adjusted as small as it can go, is about 3/4" longer than the old one.

I can't figure out what's up with my brakes. Here's the background. The brakes in the car have always sucked. Until recently I had a stock cast iron master cylinder and drums all around. I upgraded the front to Wilwood discs, replaced the master cylinder with an aluminum unit I bought from...

What size are the wheel cylinder bleeder screws (rear brakes)? It seems like it's 9/32", but I can't find an offset wrench in that size anyhere. The only 9/32" I have is a stubby one and it's a pain in the butt to get in there with it. Is that the right size?

I put the caliper on one side, and found that the rotor was dragging on the shoes. So I wanted to pull the caliper off and put another shim in. I couldn't get the bolts out. They would spin and spin but not come out. Finally I was able to get them out, but they came out with the threads from...

Who has done a Wilwood front brake install? How'd it go? How long did it take? Anything to look out for? I read through the instructions, aside from the safety wire (which I've never done) it looks pretty simple. I'm just wondering if there's any "gotchas" to I need to be aware of.

I finally broke down and ordered my Wilwood brake kit today. Woohoo! Free shipping, adjustable proporational valve, stainless steel brake lines, Wilwood Dynalite Pro Series 2723 kit. All for $651.95. Not a bad deal! http://www.hotrodsusa.com/store/dpsfront_hub.html

I'm going to be replacing the drums in the front of my Duster over the winter (finally). Keep in mind this car doesn't see any street time, only used on the track. What brake package would be best for this? SSBC? Master Power? Wilwood? Baer? Strange?
