    Help bleeding brakes

    JMHO, but that sleeve may prevent the rear piston from uncovering the intake port, so you won't get any fluid when the pedal is depressed.

    10x2 rear drum assm. swap to 10x2.5 66 belvedere Question!

    The axles are retained externally just like the 8-3/4" axle. There is no need to remove the differential cover, but the axles will have to be removed. Is it necessary to change the backing plates to use the wider shoes?

    HELP!! i can't find the brake drums for 66 belv. 4door!!!

    I'm doing that to my '66 hemi Coronet, I'll let you know how it works. It has 11's in front and 10X2.5's in the rear, as it was originally a disc brake car. I'm putting 11's on the back so it is correct for a manual drum brake car.

    HELP!! i can't find the brake drums for 66 belv. 4door!!!

    IIRC (don't hold me to it,) my '69 Dart Custom with the 8-3/4 axle and the disc brake option used 10X2" rear drums. It might be another place to look.

    Bleeding Brakes.. Problem?

    I need an opinion

    I need an opinion

    AFAIK, hemi cars were equipped with 11" drums from the factory. When the booster was removed to facilitate valve adjustments, the 11" front drums would have been the logical choice, as the disc brakes are almost worthless without power assist. Since I plan to replace the hydraulic cam with...

    I need an opinion

    The reason I'm asking is that there is an ebay seller in Canada who has the complete rear 11" drum setup for this car. It would be an easy way to have all the correct parts without running all over the place trying to find them. I would say that going back to power discs is the least likely...

    I need an opinion

    According to the Monroney label, my '66 Coronet was supposed to come from the factory with the power disc brake option. The fender tag also decodes to that option. According to the article in the August '90 issue of Mopar Action magazine, the car "missed" the option as it was built, and came...

    Help me identify this brake booster

    I had Dewey do the booster in my '69 Dart years ago and had him replate it also. It was perfect.
