Boy is my face red! You guys figured it out. The calipers were on the wrong side. Swapped them over, bled the whole system. Didn't get the car out on the street because of time constraints, but running it back and forth in the drive shows a 100% improvement. Pedal height seems good. Still have...
With the rear tires off the ground and trans in neutral, the tires are tough to turn, so I can't see clicking the shoes out any further. The drums would have to be beat on.
The only loss of brake fluid has come from bleeding. I have been underneath this car a hundred times in the past five days...
1968 Coronet born with manual drum brakes. Now with power disc/drum aftermarket setup. Currently using the OEM distribution block( no metering valve) with a separate proportioning valve for the rear. After bleeding the pedal is high and stiff with the engine off, but with engine running the...

That one is welded right to the car, and goes to the front two breakaway capsules, davek. I have the feeling I left that bracket on the original brake pedal assembly, Stanton. If so I am sure it resides in KY right now. I will have to check next time down there. I still have to wonder if the two...
1968 Coronet. I am putting a 4 speed in an original column shifted automatic car. That, of course, meant swapping the pedals. When I went to put the steering column in, something is missing. In the diagram, the breakaway capsule that is labeled (the one closest to the firewall) has nothing to...
