Interesting comment on Facebook about Model-A Brakes

Brent,
I would say that they had to obviously change the components which changed the brake adjustment and could effect their results by at least that percentage.

Even one click of the brake adjusting wedge can make a difference. In my opinion the original system does well when rebuilt properly. I've taken off more brake floaters that were causing issues than solved them.

Everyone has their opinion just like they do... I can't see going through all the motions to try and prove that.... not sure what the actual point was. Maybe he is selling brake floaters?

Just my 2 cents worth..

I'm no expert on Model A brakes, but people who are have consistently told me that the original brake system restored to original, in every detail, WAS a good system. I've always been told that brake floaters were a bandaid repair and wasn't addressing the real problem which was, brakes not properly restored. I have to agree with Larry.
