Re: Brake Buddy Adjustment
I got the "A" out today and the brakes worked fine. Here is what I did:
1. Replaced the Flathead Ted parts I kept with original new stuff.
2. Lubricated all the moving parts with anti-seize.
3. Installed all new adjuster parts.
4. I used the Brake Buddy to get a good starting point then drove the car until I had good brakes. with 2 identical rear skid marks. the fronts pull equally with no side pull and the car rolls free with no pull to either side.
So I guess the best advice from this adventure is, don't mix parts. Use the right lube. Replace parts that you think might not be in good condition. The Brake Buddy is a starting point and a road test while you make small adjustments will finish the job.
Lastly thanks for the help tour information made id easier. Steve
