Nothing wrong with staying all drums. Pre-bent stainless kit is the way to go, much easier to work with for final fitment. I put a second full loop in the line from the master cylinder
- try that with standard steel lines. Got those and the (’73-’76 A body) front disc kit from:
http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/ Supplied 15/16” Master cylinder Centric 130.63017 seemed too spongy for manual disc/drum brakes. Swapped it out for a 1 - 1/32” bore part number NMC1515. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/OBH0/NMC1515.oap?ck=Search_nmc1515_-1_4478&keyword=nmc1515 There is also a 1 - 1/8” Mopar master available - lots of good brake info here too: http://www.piratejack.net/index.php?product_id=394&page=shop.product_details&category_id=49&flypage=yagendoo_flypage_1.tpl&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=6&vmcchk=1&Itemid=6 From: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]
I am thinking about updating my 64 Barracuda to go from the single-line braking system to a dual-line system, and using a full brake-line kit, in conjunction with
a new master cylinder and proportioning valve block to get there. I was thinking that if I use a master cylinder and line kit (either pre-bent or bend-your-own) from a 68-69 Dart/Barracuda, that would work. I do not plan on going from drum to disk, just
keeping the drums all the way around. Wouldn't this later A-body brake system work on the 64 Barracuda (Slant 6/ manual brakes)? I am trying to keep this a relatively simple procedure, while updating
the system for safety (I know disks are safer. Don't want to go there...). Larry (Akron) -- -- -- Please address private email -- email of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
