    Brake booster and master

    This one - Mopar Aluminum Master Cylinder Kit I ran the 4 stud with manual brakes (no power brakes on my fury) with the 1 1/32 bore. Honestly, call the phone number and Cass will answer. He'll help you sort it out to make sure you get the right stuff. He'll want to know what caliper you are...

    Brake booster and master

    Hey Derek - I ran had a tough time figuring out what I needed as well (manual drum/drum to a manual disc/drum). After buying and returning a couple MC's, I ended up calling Dr. Diff and he got me sorted out.

    Shock replacement question

    If you are stuck then I'd suggest getting it over to a shop to swap them out for you. If you are going the route of removing the LCA then there's a lot of other pieces you should consider changing out at the same time (ball joints, bushings, tie rods, etc).

    Shock replacement question

    This was the first thing I did to my Fury as well and ran into the same issues you did and actually posted the same question here :) The new ones will fit in - make sure the lower control arm is free floating (the jack/jack stand isn't holding it up). I had to kinda snake the new one up into...

    New master cylinder, brakes not effective

    I'd pull the mc and bench bleed it just to be sure.

    scarebird disk brake conversion on 1964 880

    Is your brake light switch or bracket holding it adjustable? I have a 68 fury upgraded with scareBird disc kit on the front. I just recently swapped mc's for one from dr. Diff. His mc uses a bracket to mount in the stock location pushing the mc (and push rod) out about 1/4 inch. This created...

    What is this bushing called

    I did buy Mook K7064 and here's what came in the package compared to what came in the MevoTech bushing kit (MK7061). THe moog bushing is nothing like the picture online - but actually looks like the bushing that attaches the stabilizer bar to the K-member. Here's the pic from the...

    What is this bushing called

    It's a bushing at the junction of the sway bar and strut. I bought a sway bar bushing kit from RockAuto (MEVOTECH MK7061) and this didn't come with it. I can't find a name for it or where to pick up a new one. Any ideas?

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    Update: Re-bled the brakes today and topped off the MC and took it for a test drive. What a difference. I get a nice, light pedal travel, and can bring the car to a stop quicker. I didn't try to lock up the brakes or anything, but did a series of quick stops and long slow downs. I'm happy...

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    The wife just let me know the brake lights were on. Looks like the brake pedal doesn't quite sit where it used to and the pedal doesn't engage the switch any more. Need to figure that out next.

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    The new MC from Dr. Diff came in on Saturday and I bench bled it and installed this morning. Installation went fine and it bolted up nicely. I bled the brakes at all 4 tires but didn't realize I had the e-brake on. So I'll do that again tomorrow and give it a test drive.

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    Update: The rear cylinder on the powered disc/drum MC is a larger diameter than the rear cylinder on the manual drum/drum MC, so swapping out the rear piston is a no-go. I called Cass at Dr. Diff today and he helped me get sorted out. Glad I called, he was a great help. I'll update with...

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    Thank you Porlara, I am going to disassemble the Cardone Disc/Drum MC and see if I can swap out the rear piston with my original and see how that works. If all else fails all this gets returned and I'll call DrDiff. On a side note, I emailed Raybestos last night and got a reply this morning...

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    That's what I'm thinking as well... Both are drum/drum. I read on a different forum that someone was using Raybestos MC36221 in a disc/drum manual setup. Since there's no information on the part available from the manufacturer I thought I'd give it a try to see if it could work. However it...

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    Ok, so MC36221 came in today and after opening it up it looks suspiciously similar to what I already had. I suspect the residual pressure valve is in this one too. There's no information on the web regarding the application here. I've emailed raybestos to get some help... Here is the...

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    Thank you saylor - Here's the relevant part of that discussion So... I see PN# MC36221 (raybestos) from RockAuto as a fit for the fury, but no other details on the usage. It sounds like the guy in the other thread got one of these to work. Guess I'll give that a shot.

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    Correct, it's a non-power system. There's not a ton of info/specs on the different MC's that I can find. It's either a drum setup or disc/drum setup not much info about if it's intended for a power or non-power system. Ugh. And it sounds like I can't really move to a power system without...

    How much resistance on front disc brakes

    Thanks everyone, I was able to get the old MC off and now it looks like I've got a different issue. The plunger hole in the new MC is shorter by about 1/2 inch. That's not going to get me full range of motion on the pedal. Did I get the wrong MC - More Information for A-1 CARDONE 101327 ...
