    Brake system overhaul - '71

    Maybe we never know what we will get. Rock has been good about taking back whatever doesn't match the picures so far. Yep, the flatter it is, the faster it cracks.

    72 New Yorker with cassette player

    I prefer the cassette player. Always seemed more durable. And wil a good home entertainment system you could record your own music. I remember recording one 2 LPs on a 90 min. Cassette. Played the LP one time then stored, thus preventing scratches and pops on the LP through over playing on the...

    They don't fit at all. The flatness would not provide as much movement for the pistons/rods, even if they did fit. The boots flex with the operation of the cylinder.

    1971 Plymouth Fury Custom

    Being English and having owned many Plymouth cars in my 38 years stateside, about 4 years ago I decided I wanted the rarest Plymouth of all. I searched far and wide before I got this rust free example from Oklahoma City and restored it to English Avenger GLS specs. I love owning as few people...

    Brake system overhaul - '71

    Does the boots being flat actually have any impact? Never taken a drum brake apart before but I thought that the metal rods that go in the center holes would be what's pushing against the brake shoes

    Brake system overhaul - '71

    Interesting. The China plant must have just been fired up. The photos on Rockauto and other places still show pics of the "good" parts.

    1971 Plymouth Fury Custom

    Ah, the Plymouth Cricket! A Hillman from Britain I believe. Dad had a Dodge Colt, from Japan. Not sure who made it, Mitsubishi, maybe. And you do have tinted windows, you can see the green hue.

    1971 Plymouth Fury Custom

    I've had the car a month, it solid, it was cheap, it's rare (the color and interior totally flat my boat) it needs cosmetic work (most of which I can do myself) and it's a perfect big brother to it's little sister, My 72 Plymouth Cricket!

    Brake system overhaul - '71

    I got some Raybestos WK941 cylinder kits from Rock a few months ago and they came with the good stuff, $5.50. My cylinders were too far gone (rust/grooves) so I then got some new Raybestos WC37235 cylinders from Rock, they also had the good parts. 6.50. But no, it ain't original no more.

    1971 Plymouth Fury Custom

    It is interesting to learn of the custom package, apparently made between May and July of '71. I was in 11th grade that year. How time flies. That has to be one of those "Think up something, guys. We need to move more units!" specials. At any rate, it looks like a good car, with only minor work...

    Brake system overhaul - '71

    Raybestus continues to go downhill with their wheel cylinder kit #WK491 now having bad parts: New kit on the left, older kit on the right: Note the "Made in CHINA" now on the box on left. New kit parts. The boots don't fit - too big ID and too flat. Older kit: parts are an exact...

    1971 Plymouth Fury Custom

    The Custom was a mid year economy special based on the Fury 1 and all had the paisley interior. All production figures are lumped in with the Fury 1 so I estimate around 3k sold. You can see the sales lit at www.fuselage.de

    Fury III AC delete

    You might need to retain the a/c evaporator core in its place in order to maintain the dash vent functions for ventilation? Otherwise, cap the lines and remove all of the compressor items from the motor. Might need some non-a/c pulleys? Just thinking, CBODY67

    Power Brake Booster Upgrade Question

    The stock 64 New Yorker single diaphragm booster works very good with a 67 New Yorker disc brake master cylinder on my 64 New Yorker with 79 Cordoba disc/spindle/caliper conversion. I also changed the rear wheel cylinder to smaller diameter cylinders and kept the rear drums. I'm not having a...
