Re: crap brake parts



Neal I have been using ROck Auto parts and have had no problems. They alway have several different brands to choose from. Give them a try.    Gary

Has there been a massive collapse of quality and availablity in mopar brake parts.?? I have done probably 20 brake jobs on mopars in my life and never, ever, had the difficulty I am now experiencing. The only parts that have been trouble free have been the bearings and brake hoses. Everything else is crap. Brake drums  that are too wide, , return spring kits that look nothing like the manual,  bearing seals loose in the bore, master cylinders that look nothing like the original, and even one from Oreillys that had rusty dirty brake fluid in it when I opened it up. Thought I had it all ready finally, but yesterday one of the wheel cylinders starts leaking out one end. I have looked everywhere locally and online. The NAPA here supposedly has the most Mopar availability because that show, Graveyard Carz , is based here and he gets his parts at  NAPA but they really didn't come thru any better than anywhere else. Personally I am wondering if I shouldn't just rip it all out and spend a few thousand on a front and rear aftermarket 4 wheel disc setup.  I have bought new and rebuilt stuff and it doesn't matter its all junk. Wondering if the car is even safe to drive. Had to reuse all the return springs for instance.
