Reply to "Brakes locking up"

panterrorMy 74 GTS

I had the same problem after a long restoration. I was stumped for a while. It's more than likely being caused by your brake booster and the diaphram aging. Simply shorten the rod in the master cylinder and the problem will be resolved. I spoke with Dennis Quella about it and within 15 seconds of the discussion he told me it was common and shortening the MC rod (even shorter than the specified length), will address the problem. In my case he was correct. -No problems since. Use common sense when you do this and cautiously shake down your brake system. If you are uncomfortable with this, as others have suggested, hire it done.
