So, I finally get around to doing that popular proportioning valve mod. Yank off the rear tires (first time tires have been off since I've owned it). And notice something is not right. On the driver's side the brake caliper is on the rear of the brake, but on the the passenger side the caliper is on the front.. Is that even possible?? Popped open the master cylinder, very low, and it looks like old caramel syrup.

Don't ask me if that proportioning valve thing actually works because I couldn't tell you. When I went to bleed the rear brakes, nothing but air. Been driving around with just front bakes for the past 3 months. That right there makes it feel 800 times better. I have no comparison between the springs.

 

Standard position until 89+ when both calipers went to the rear.

Not just possible, it's correct.

 

odd. Iv never seen that before.

I stand corrected..but he is still stupid (EVERY wiring harness is spliced or diced in some way).

 

Why did you buy a hacked up car????

 

didn't know it was that hacked up at the time

 

It is a *****&*&^ Hack job. Hackery is not necessary, get it back to how it is suppose to be as best as you can.

 

I am trying, but I will basically need a parts car/ EVERY single harness in the car.

 

Well we will be here to help with any questions, pictures would be nice we love pictures.

 

Since the subject has moved to wiring, I have started a new thread in Electronics
