Re: [FWDLK] disc brake conversions



Larry,

Drum brake master cylinders are designed to keep a small residual pressure in the brake line.

Disk master cylinders have no residual pressure, because there are no return springs in a disk caliper.

 Gentlepersons....have any of you that have put disc brakes on the front using AAJ or other's brackets had the calipers not release after the pedal is released?  This with a dual m/c that was designed for drums all around.  Could it be that the drum shoes return springs force the fluid back up the incoming tube and m/c designed for disc front/drum rear have some internal change that allows the calipers to release?  You can email me direct to save the list from the trouble.  Larry Jett               jettlarry@xxxxxxx
