Lee,
I have silicone brake fluid in my drum braked 59' 4/4 which has had all new
or rebuilt brake components installed. I've never had any problems using it
and the fact that it doesn't remove paint has been a blessing. However,
I've heard that the seal swelling issue might be a concern in disk braked
cars.
Regards,
John

Subject: Fluid switch
I'm thinking of switching from standard brake fluid to silicone brake
fluid.
Wondering if I need to do a special flush of the brake system to clear out
the old fluid (Lockheed), and if so, what do I use to do the flushing.
Or can I just flush the system with the new silicone fluid?
