Make sure all the shoes are adjusted right. Those old Hucks are hard to adjust. Each shoe has an adjustment. All of the adjustments are right hand threads. If you have worked on the brakes you know how they are constucted & you can visualize in your mind which way to turn the adjustment. Even if you adjust them up till they lock up or are real tight you can get a good pedal & then go back & adjust them properly. Usually about 4 notches back from a heavy drag is about right. You may still have a little drag but that is OK. When you get them right the pedal will hardly go down. You just apply pressure to it. Make sure your master cyl. push rod is adjusted to let the piston go all the way back. If you are haveing trouble bleeding, speedy bleeders might help.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
