I know this has been answered, but I cannot find it. A 69 cruiser has a 4 wheel disc brake upgrade with a booster and master cylinder. The booster is extended beyond the support on the firewall. The new carb has a secondary that competes for the same space as the end of the master. The...
I upgraded to a 100 series front brake setup and have my old stuff on the shelf.
Good condition.
$25 a set rotors
$25 a set calipers
Buyer pays shipping.
My 2008 has parking brake wires that has stuck because of rust.
I am thinking of getting new ones or lubricating the old ones.
Anyone done this? Anyone seen an instruction video on YT? Or on this forum?
Always easier to watch before doing!
Hey all, I've got what appears to be a Dorman check valve and grommets (2) on my OEM booster but cannot locate a repair for the failed grommets. They fall out of the hole in the BB and I'm having to use gasket maker to keep it in place. I can't even find a source for the original parts for...
Was driving the other day and the ABS light came on the dash. It turns on and off intermittently. Today I noticed a slight buzzing noise coming from the brake pedal when I pressed them at low speeds, along with this pulsating/fluttering/judder in the brake pedal as well. When it is doing this...
So just passing this on in case anyone else runs into the same problem, a deformed original brake hard line nut that would not thread into the new flexible hose. I had this happen in the past with a front caliper hard line nut, in that case I had to replace the short hard brake line going to a...
Looking at the SOR brake line kit and was wondering what people’s thoughts were.
Will have to figure which one would work best for me as I have a 67 FJ40 that I converted to disc brakes.

I have bent and flared lines in the past, so that’s also a consideration.
Seven years ago I installed reman calipers and new brake pads all around and discovered today I have a leak. Roughly 25k and haven't had to replace pads yet. Haven't had a chance to investigate but wondering if there is any quality difference between the major auto parts store reman quality?
Looking for some recommendations on what parts direction to go on two major projects on my 96 RHD FZJ80. The Two major projects are Brakes and the classic knuckle rebuild.
For brakes, planning on rotors, pads, and one caliper. Any recommendations? While I can do the OEM from Cruiser Outfitters...
Looking for opinions on the Slee SS Brake Line kit. I have a 2005 and I’m planning on rebuilding by brake caliper pistons. Obviously some synergy there with just gutting the existing brake lines and resetting that clock for years to come. I’m considering upgrading to Slee’s kit.
Who has put in...
The parking brake / hand brake on my LJ78 has always been rubbish, it will work great for a short time, but will then stop working even after replacing all the shoes and disc/drum.
So I have been looking at alternatives, and the two I can find are:
1. Fit a transmission brake - I don’t really...
The car is a RHD Auto HDJ 100 4.2 TD from 1998 which I have owned for many years.
A few years ago I replaced the pump and accumulator and also did the piston servicing kit.
The issue is that I sometime have a brake pedal that progressively goes to the floor. Note that on the floor the car stays...
Up for sale is a brand new MC and brake ECU attached to a used accumulator, used pump, and used reservoir.
Had a customer attempt to install his own brake unit and strip out the front most brake line on the MC. Selling this for parts as it could be rebuilt or some of its components reused for...
