    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    Sorry for the delay, It's definitely pic #3, the mid 70's style booster. Since my last, I've went ahead and replaced the master and you were right! We are back in business people. Feels good to be able to have this done. Excited to be able to start taking it out again since this whole...

    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    I'll take a look today. I live with my girlfriend and the car is parked at my parents since theres more room to store it there. It's possible some of the lube I used got on the pads because I was so paranoid about making sure everything moved smoothly so I wouldnt have to repeat this process. I...

    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    I know it originally had front drums (the backs are still drums) but the front brakes were swapped out with disc brakes from a 70 fury by the previous owner ("mineshark" on the forum was previous owner, rip my friend). When he did that he ran new lines and a new proportioning valve but I don't...

    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    Hey guys. I know this thread is from a long time ago but I finally did it! Took the calipers off and swapped out the caliper pins and got new brake hoses. Lubed up the pins good and put it all back together. Bled the brakes and we are back in business. No more brakes clamping down on the...

    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    It seems like the problem starts initially once i put everything back on and start bleeding the brakes. Like right after the first push of the break pedal (when doing the 2 man method) the brakes squeeze on the rotors and dont let go. It gets a little better once going around the car several...

    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    Thank you all for your input, I did replace the inner and outer bearings and races during the front end rebuild. I was pretty good making sure the retaining nut was tightened to specs in the manual with an inch pound torque wrench and I went back and checked this several times as this was my...

    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    It's kinda hard to remember as its been a little while. I really dont think I let them hang while working on the car, i was pretty good about cradling the brakes in my hand while removing them. I did end up taking both brakes completely off and the flexible lines and setting them in the garage...

    Front brakes sticking somewhat after front end rebuild

    Hello all, new to the forum, hoping to tap into the wealth of knowledge from those of you on here. Im a younger kid but a few years back i really got interested in older cars especially the style of the 60's mopars. I bought a 67 Newport Custom 2 door a few years ago, steered like a boat but i...
