New rear disk brakes question
I just upgraded from rear drum to strange disk brakes. I replaced the stock master with a wilwood unit reccomended by wilwood .. I have spent alot of tiime being sure the system is bled well. Strange reccomends 600- 700 psi to rear and 1000 to 1100 front i have the rears set at 650 adjusted by proprtioning valve.
I notice the pedal seems "softer" ..i have no passes on this new setup yet.. The pedal with the drums and stock master cyl was a "firmer" Will the pedal change after i use the brakes a few passes??? thanks Keith |
steel brake lines or steel braid lines?

have steel then a 14in braided flex just to the front calipers.. then flex back at the rear for flexibility to a t then steel to the rear calipers.
thanks |
A few questions here,
1. did you bleed the master cyl also ? 2. Do you have a residual valve on it ? 3. Did you bleed both sides of the caliper ? |

Yes i did bleed the master... with the lines hooked up and fed back to front and rear sump of the master.
I do not have a residual valve... but i do have a proportioning valve.With the rear pressure set per strange 650psi As far as the bleeding... i was up on the lift in the car pumping the pedal.. so i better ask my buddy if he did both. thanks for the responses Keith |
