Default How the front brake work
Here is my take on how the front brakes work. The Ford engineers put some special features in the design that most owners are not aware of.

As always, your comments are welcome.

Forget the brakes, they really don't work.
The clutch always sticks, and starts with a jerk.
My car grows red hair, and flies through the air.
Driving's a blast, a blast from the past.
