    Replacing inner front wheel bearings

    The hubs are too small for a "Green(ball bearing) big enough to survive the side load stresses of turning/steering, especially since the majority of the cars weight is over the front axle. This shows you the loading superiority of a tapered/roller bearing as opposed to the Green-ball bearings.

    Can I reuse these old drums?

    If the brakes are 24 years old, the drums would be last on the things to worry about. What does the brake fluid look like ? Do any of the wheel cylinders leak or even work ? Master cylinder ?

    Disk Brake Lines Question

    Don't practice on the car you will be driving. New lines are not that expensive and will last your lifetime. No wondering if you did something wrong. Go braided steel on the flex lines as well. "Quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten."

    Do older torsion bars droop? (Ride height questions)

    Going to poly on the lower control arms are subject to noise. Most go rubber on the lowers and poly on the uppers. The torsion bars are 50 years old. Well past design life.

    Master Cylinder Question

    We haven't seen anything but a picture of a M/C. You say you used a 90's style disc brake setup. What does that mean ? You can't just mix and match brake parts. And the rear brake adjustment is how you adjust the height of the brake pedal. Loosen the rear brakes and the pedal will go to the...

    B body disc break master fluid proper level

    That fluid level is with new brake pads and the rear brakes adjusted properly. As the pads wear down, the level drops. If you just keep filling it up you won't know how worn they are.

    Spongey brakes cant find the problem

    Sometime you can get air bubbles trapped in the calipers. And old fix is to tap the calipers with the bleeder open to force any bubbles to the top.

    Spongey brakes cant find the problem

    Common with 4 wheel disc conversions with mismatched parts. One thing that helps is to replace all the rubber lines with quality, braided steel lines. They won't expand under high pressures. Easy, cheap solution. Put drum brakes back on the rear. Don't need disc on the rear unless this is a...

    Alignment question

    How long has it been since it aligned last ? How many miles since then? It might be time anyway,they are only as good as the last alignment, the condition of the front suspension parts and how it has been driven since the last time.
