Working on the brakes of my 68 fury. The car got parked shortly after aquired and I am finally getting on it. The brakes are terrible. I am tackling a few other issues such as a leak in the rear and decided to focus on rear and getting it button up and work my way to the front.
Going proactive. Popping the drums off and drums look good. I will replace the brake cylinders as one looks a bit old and moist. I'll do them both. While i am there I will replace all the springs, etc. Thats cheap stuff. The brakes lines look sketchy and not sure their age so i am going to replace back to front. I see complete kits out there.
I am not sure if I should replace with steel or stainless. Any suggestions?
Attached is the MC. I missed not having a booster when I was looking at the car. I would think a car this big would have one. A sport fury is high up on the trim level. any chance this is a problem wiht the brakes being so bad. They are "Charles Barley Turrible"
Thx. Tom
