RE: 64 Plymouth Sport Fury Brake lines

["Gary H." <62to65mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The brake hose that supplies fluid to the rear cylinders probably is 
collapsed inside, thus preventing fluid from squeezing past. Put a new 
rear brake hose on and see. You probably should replace that hose anyway 
if its age is not known.  

Thanks,
