Default Re: Comprehesive howto for brakes?

The Service Bulletins are good for learning what was important to know when the Model A was new. They are not a guide for how to restore a 90 yr-old vehicle. That is not to say they should not be consulted during restoration or maintenance, because specs and tolerances and such are still relevant. But they should be only one book in a library of restoration references, including MAFCA and MARC publications and private books like Les Andrews’s series. Also, if one is new to the Model A it is wise to join a local club, where years of experience and assistance are available that can help you through the arcane and antique peculiarities of making these exceptional machines work properly, even after nearly a century on the road.
