Those wheel cylinders look like they've been at a party at Studio 54😆

Okay that was really funny.

Thanks Jeff !!!

I found a place here in Dallas, TX that would turn my front drums with the hubs in place.

Nicop brake line is fantastic.Wheel cylinders are so cheap now no need to rebuild them.I picked up a good used brake laith its great to have if your working on classic cars.

[@AutoRestoMod]

Man, I would love to have a brake lathe and also a drum lathe to be able to work those things. Our problem is studio space to shop tools starts getting crowded quickly. I need more room, but I can't have it because of the county. LOL.

New lines all the way around.

That was absolutely where we're going to head with this.

I've heard it called a "jelly jar "

[@RedDogRER]

Any tips for getting the master cylinder cap off if it won't budge? Brakes are otherwise great but can't get the things off now and I'd love to check my fluids... (single bowl, 66 Mustang)

Disc brakes are your friend.

[@AutoRestoMod]

I totally agree, and when we do the conversion over to the 8-in rear axle and the V8, we will be adding the disc brakes to it. Mostly because we'll be moving over to a 5 lug pattern anyway.
