[AMC-List] mustang brakes on 62 classic

[d stohler <das24rules@xxxxxxxxx>]

hey frank, weather got a little better so i ended up
gettin everything mounted before i got your email
about wanting sketch of brackets. next time i get them
taken off i will do that for you. 

i had to machine down the hubs a fare amount. i need
to find a proportioning valve. having that rear axle
lockup issue i knew i would have. not real bad tho,
only when i have the clutch pedal in and hit the
brakes hard. i guess there is a resudual pressure
valve in the line somewhere also. i have a fare amount
of brake drag. seems to be only mostly on the left
side. right side had hardly any heat in it, but left
was hot and pulled to the left now. there is a little
disk shaped "block" that the brake light switch is on.
would that probably be the residual pressure valve for
the front? it has the one line in, and then splits
into 2 lines going to each front wheel. then in the
middle has the brake light switch. then on the rear
brake line, on the right side of the firewall where it
starts to run under the car, there is a small
"coupler" looks like linking 2 metal brake lines
together. i have seen residual pressure valves that
look like this. would that be the one for the rear
brakes? i plan to go to disks on the rear when i get
the money to get the parts for that and get the issues
for the front brakes worked out. brakes seem to work
well, but the pedal goes all the way to the floor. i
have blead the crap out of them. will mess around with
them some more see if i can get them the way i like
them. i like my brakes touchy and right THERE. well,
till the next update.
