 Re: bleeding brakes, seeking advice I found the info on some mustang forums about it.

Re: bleeding brakes, seeking advice I just spent 20 mins on the phone with BC Broncos, they assured me that my m/c should work with the t-bird calipers. They've installed t-bird calipers on all sorts of masters with no problems. He said that I now have my m/c hooked up backwards. He said that the REAR (closest to the driver) line from the m/c feeds the front brakes. He said that was how all m/c work, that way when you are just slightly pushing on the pedal, the m/c was only feeding the front brakes. I was ready to buy new stainless F150 hoses & he discouraged me and insisted my combo should work. I'm confused.

Re: bleeding brakes, seeking advice Took some time at work and looked at a few cars. Seems all master cylinders are plumbed the same. The rear line (many times the smaller line) runs the front brakes. I switched my m/c lines & dropped the truck at the service department. They should bleed my brakes tomorrow & I'll report back.
