67 Corvette PB J56 Brake Problem

[PeteLeathersac]

Are the rear flex lines new?.
If not it's possible they've internally collapsed and/or there's blockage at a rear splitter/joiner block?.
When rebleeding it may be best to start w/ the furthest wheel from the master first...RR then LR to RF and LF last..

Good luck!.

Pete,

Thanks for the post. I'm thinking it has to be either the rear hoses or a bloackage some-where. Also to clarify, when I bled the brakes I started on the passenger side rear then moved to the driver side rear and so on to the front.

Best,
Dave

Dave,
Given the details, I would crack the hose open on the one side to see what it does to change the pedal feel and also see what kind of volume you get. Do you think you could have a pinched hard line? BTW, why did you do the brake job in the first place?

We did an engine compartment detail on the car. The owner (a friend of mine) expressed some brake trouble. Turned out to be a leaking proportioning valve and a bad booster.
