Default Re: Brake floater kit A-2051-F review

Flat Head Teds replaces the original adjusting wedge with his "Floating Wedge". You adjust the brakes similar to the way you would originally. What you no longer use in Flat Head Teds system is the rollers and roller tracks.

In Flat Head Teds the brakes are rotate and become 'self energizing" similar to more modern cars with drum brakes. I have them on my town Sedan and they work quite well.
