Re: [FWDLK] 56 Imperial pulls sharply to right when braking

If it is like my 59 Desoto There are 2 wheel cylinders per wheel instead of the more modern 1 per wheel
This can make for difficulty as the cylinders get older and exert different pressures
Be prepared to replace or rebuild 8 wheel cylinders

JT,

When I bought my 56 Dodge, it did the same thing. This was caused by a leaking wheel cylinder on the opposite side. The brake fluid lubricates the lining on one side so it has unequal reduced braking and pulls to the opposite side.

Time for a brake overhaul. There may also be other causes.

What could cause this brake pull? I checked tire pressure.
