ok, just to bring this back to the top. I completed the 4 wheel disc in time for URE. I also used a brand new power brakes setup I bought from ebay. However the MC would not work right-too many pumps almost no brakes. So I swapped in the MC I was using before with the front manual disc/rear drum(it was a old f-250 MC). The problem I ran into at URE, the rear brakes were dragging and causing them to smoke everytime I stopped.
Now, I took Matt's advice and went with a new MC for a Lincoln 4 disc set up. I bench bled, installed,bled the brake lines...and still no brakes. I took it for a shake down run at a friends place near Winnsboro,SC and basically had NO brakes the whole day.
Any I deas? I will be re-bleeding the lines, even gravity bleeding them to just to help. Let me know,Chuck
oh yeah, the pedal even stay to the floor many a times that same day. If I pump the pedal a few times, it gets a little better, then goes away again???
