Need a break from these brakes... and help

[Myoldtruck]

I did the power brake conversion over the summer on my 70. If you still have 4 wheel drums then continue to use the stock brake line block under the master cylinder. Did you oil your emergency brake cables and confirm they are working, thats what started my problems with smoking brakes. I also had front brake pulling to one side.

Check for correct brake shoe installation, one short shoe and one longer shoe per side ect. Shoe linings have to be very clean, no finger prints of oil, grease ect on the linings. I used a drill with wire brush and cleaned all parts and backing plate. Take adjuster wheel apart and clean threads and sleeve and antiseeze it up, so it spins easy, make sure the adjusted wheel is installed properly facing the correct way. Anti seeze the high bumps on the backing plates so the shoes move smoothly in the drum. Replace all rubber brake lines, you have alot more system pressure now with power booster. Do your research on brake shoe quality, there is a difference, Im using napa ultra premium linings, dont go cheap.

My truck stops straight and well now.
