Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 79 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 79 | After much toil and many dollars I have rear brakes.I saw some info in another post but cannot find it now. It concerned the proper "feel" of the brake pedal.After bleeding it has a firm feel with no noticeable leakage or leakdown from the pedal. The pedal goes down about two thirds of the complete travel length and is firm.I have a new hydrovac,wheel cylinders, and lines from the rebuilt master cylinder aft. Is this correct? I adjusted the new shoes correctly on lightly turned hubs.When should I readjust after waiting for the new shoes to "seat"? I can relate to the person who said he was spending his kids inheritance.So far its running about 100.00 a week!
Thanks, JMH
