Default Re: Chevelle Brake Problem

Just food for thought, I have had NOTHING BUT HEADACHES with Repop brake parts, ie. boosters and master cylinders, over the years causing all kinds of weird things from improper brake pedal travel to the front brake pads being slightly compressed on the front rotors causing drag and excessive heat when your foot is entirely off the brake pedal!! In my opinion it's best to restore and put the factory stuff back on...

It's also a good idea to switch the system to silicone brake fluid for rust issues. Once that is done you can literally park the car forever and not worry about the system locking up on you... Plus if you spill it on a painted surface it won't harm anything, just wipe it up...
