[DML] Re: Brake Problem





I had the exact same problem on my old 66 mustang. It would almost 
pull the wheel out of my hand when I braked. It pulled to the right 
so hard it felt like just the right front was stopping the car. 
Couldn't touch the drum till I let it cool for 2o minutes after a 
run. After changing the pads, flushing & flushing the brake system 
again it still pulled. Only after I changed the front lines did the 
problem leave. The line was collapsing and causing the problem.

After getting the Deloreans and after about the first year of 
ownership I was thinking the same thing could happen. This year at 
Pigeon Forge I bought the newer stainless braided brake lines. WHAT 
a difference. Much firmer pedal and just the good feeling knowing 
your brakes shouldn't be failing you when you need them. I also 
bought the dust shields from Don Steger and couldn't be happier with 
them. Wonderful for cutting down on the brake dust. Pricey, but very 
nice.

I would suggest if you are going to be doing any brake work anytime 
soon and you drive your delorean more then a few times a year, the 
stainless braided brake lines are a wonderful upgrade for our cars.
