I'm going with Berkley One for now. Thank you guys for all the input. $345 yearly for the 2 cars with reasonable, realistic coverage limits.

I'm looking into Berkley One now. The preliminary quote was around $430 for 2 cars (the Chrysler and a Saturn 3-door). I'm shopping around, but this doesn't seem unreasonable. Hagerty is a bit more steep.

Greetings, all. My 1969 NY just got dropped from American Collectors insurance. They claim that the car has to be worth at least $5K (they valued it at $4K), and added that it has actually depreciated recently, so they won't insure me. I don't see how that's possible, because it would be...

I appreciate the information, but I don't think I'm going to do that. I ran compressed air through it, and there's no blockage, so any other problem that may exist probably requires replacement. If that's the case, then I will likely replace the entire master cylinder. For now, the car...

Absolutely nothing. I assume they're internal.... The reason for this whole post is that this isn't the first time I've worked on this brake system. I've been all over this car. I've owned it for nearly 20 years. In every single case, without exception, I have never seen this when working...

Nothing has been changed other than what i mentioned. What's got me concerned is that opening the system at any point should allow the pedal to go to the floor, and with this car, that isn't happening. Disconnecting the main line before the split at the differential, disconnecting the lines...

Alright. I disconnected the main line from the brake hose. I then pressed on the pedal, and still, it wouldn't go to the floor. It did, however, move fluid through the line. I then disconnected the line at the master cylinder and ran compressed air through the entire length. There was no...

The rubber line is a Raybestos part.

What's the difference between the 2? Is one merely a splitter (distribution block), and the other plays an active role in regulating the hydraulics (proportioning valve)? I thought every vehicle built after a certain year has a proportioning valve.

I considered this a possibility. Can I use compressed air to clear it, if it has a blockage?

I'll try this, although I can't imagine things would be different from turning the bleeder out several turns. I'll give it a shot snyway.

I slready replaced it a couple of weeks ago. I mentioned this in my initial post.

The wheel cylinders were replaced. Upon removal, the lines were dripping, so I can't say there's a restriction further up the line. They were dripping pretty slowly, but dripping nevertheless.

1969 NY, front disc / rear drum. A while back, I replaced the rear brake hose which was restricted due to age. Not long after, one wheel cylinder started leaking, so I replaced them both (they were severely corroded on the inside). What was weird is that the lines bled, but they bled slowly...

There were 2 rings in the package. One I'm pretty sure goes into a groove in the pump body first, then the smaller one goes on the line itself, Id imagine. It's all together. I'll fire it up over the weekend and make sure nothing leaks.

Excellent. The old pump is out, the pulley is off, and I'm assembling the new pump in a day or two. I noticed that the high pressure line has no o-ring on it, but there is one in a recessed area in the pump where the threads for the fitting on the line get screwed in. Is this the only o-ring...

Yes, but is there a nut that requires removal before I press the pulley off?

I bought a new one from BBB, but it didn't come with a pulley. There's something that looks like a nut on the end of the shaft. Does that have to be removed before the pulley comes off? I would think that it does, but it doesn't have a hex design, so I'm not sure how well a socket will work on it.

Greetings. I have a Federal pump on my '69 NY (original 440 with only 60K) which is slowly crapping out. It's leaking slightly from the seal behind the pulley, and the shaft has some end play (very little, but you can hear it even with the belt still on). The leak is minor now, but I'm sure...

Not that this thread is active, but I figured I'd provide something resembling an answer just in case this helps someone in the future. After much research, it appears the ABS module is almost certainly at fault. I only have to find one with the exact part number and install it. I can't...
