    Brake Pedal - Power Assist Issue

    Hey - the Pink Number 6 is mine!!! I think it was the coolest car there. :) I love that car a lot but driving pace laps in the Deuce was the highlight of my weekend! We have a hot tub in the back of the Deuce and filled it with a hose next to one of the garages on Friday. They made us drain it...

    Brake Pedal - Power Assist Issue

    I just got back and I have bought a 3/4" impact wrench, a 3/4" to 1" adapter, and a 1 1/2" - 13/16" budd socket. I'm going to get me a set of the correct feeler gauges now and give it helll! I'm not driving the truck until I get them sorted out but I DID drive it last weekend to the 24 Hours...

    Brake Pedal - Power Assist Issue

    ^^^ I'm trying to understand the mechanics of what is happening to the brakes on my truck. Specifically how the pedal falls when not being used but does not fall if I hold my foot on it. This is just to satisfy my need for knowledge.

    Brake Pedal - Power Assist Issue

    1. Replaced the master cylinder with a new one - it came with the truck so figured why not try it. 2. Bled the air pack and all wheel cylinders until all old fluid was flushed out. Used DOT 5 Silicone fluid. 3. Pulled the J-pipe from the rear of the air pack and lubricated with machine...

    I was sure that I'd hate it but now that I see it - I LIKE IT! It seems easy enough to remove when not in use. I think I'm going to start looking for a camper!

    Exhaust gasket question

    Confirmed. Installed the J-pipe with no gasket and no detectable leaks. I hope this thread helps someone else searching this topic.

    Exhaust gasket question

    Replacing the j pipe on my turbo deuce with a good used one and found the remnants of a gasket between the flex pipe just after the turbo and the j-pipe. Ive never seen gaskets used on v-band setups before. If I do not replace the gasket between the flex pipe and the j-pipe, will the v-band...

    Brake Pedal - Power Assist Issue

    No, I have not read any technical manuals yet - but I will read everything! Just give me time. I just found the resource section (duh) so I guess I'll be busy for a while. I do intend to slowly work through every issue on the truck but just to get me going for a while I wanted to find the...

    Brake Pedal - Power Assist Issue

    First, please go easy on me for not searching. I was not able to find a brake thread that quite explained what I am experiencing with the brakes on my Deuce and I definitely want to get this right. As much as driving the truck brings a smile to my face... sometimes the brakes nearly scare...
