please help brake question
hello, i have a 67 shortbed and re-did the brakes.. front discs, master cylinder, prop valve (disc/drum) from cpp, new drum hardware and shoes for the rear and the drums were still good and all stainless steel brake lines from right stuff. my question is.. i saw that stacey gearz show and he said not to use brass with ss line, only oem lines and instead use AN fittings for stainless.. my brakes SUCK and i used brass. could this be the problem? manuel brakes, no leaks, gravity bleed the brakes. i believe the front is grabbing too much more than the rear
Thanks for your time, Joe |

Re: please help brake question
i spun 180 degrees the only time i slammed my brakes bc of a deer going only about 55 and i didnt rly put a crazy amount of pressure on the pedal... for a daily driver this has to change fast

Re: please help brake question
Sounds like maybe the rear brakes locked up before the front. Maybe using an adjustable prop valve may help.
Cutting the steering wheel may have contributed also. |

Re: please help brake question
are you sure you plumbed the brakes properly from the prop valve? if they are switched front and rear it wood cause a problem like that
