I'm hoping someone can answer a few questions I have on brake issues with my 53 Mercury Monterey.
It is currently up on the lift at a local shop. I purchased the car a few months back, and the previous owner had a different shop do the following back in 2010, but the car hasn't been driver much since. *2 Front and 2 Rear wheel cylinders *2 Front brake hoses *New grease seals (front drums) My two issues are: 1) The car pulls hard to the RIGHT when the brakes are applied. The mechanic says the wheel cylinder on the RIGHT opens a lot quicker than the left one. He has bled the brakes but it still does it. Any ideas? 2) He says both of the brake hoses that the previous mechanic put on years ago are rubbing the spindles on both sides. He wasnt sure if the correct hoses were put on but is wondering if the hose connectors on the original hoses had angled connects that would avoid hitting the spindles, or were the connectors originally straight like the ones in the picture? Any idea? Anyone have a photo I could show him? Any idea who seels the correct hoses? I'm trying to get my car back from the shop asap before we head to Colorado to see our daughter who is due with their first baby. Yes, I will be a grandpa. ![]() Thanks for any info. |
