Yeah, well- just remember that the Ford Fairmont made R&T's "10 Best Cars for a Changing World" list in 1979 or so. To show the depth of their ignorance, they later wrote, after testing a Chevy Citat

When you talk about the threads being "handed," are you talking about wire wheel hubs? I don't think that the axle to hub nuts and matching threads are handed- at least none of my LBC's are. In any

You would not have wire wheels, per chance? On disk wheel cars, the brake drums slide over the wheel studs and are held in place with small screws. They can get away with this because the wheel stud

As most others, I would not reccomend applying your brakes until the disks glow as a method for cleaning the brake pads. However, the concept of heating your pads to drive out oil is not a new one. M

When you say that the mechanical linkage is at the limit, do you mean as long as possible or as short as possible? You are having classic symptoms of insufficient master cylinder piston return. When
