I have a weird issue on my 69 Baja, I installed Giha disks up front a couple years ago, the only issue I had then was getting a good pedal. I went through 3 Master cylinders from Auto zone and Advanced auto before they were good. I store it over the winter and this year when I first drove it the front brakes locked up and wouldn't release. I stopped in a parking lot and cracked the front left bleeder and got about 2 drops of fluid out. The brakes released and were fine for about a month then they did it again. I was at home this time and jacked it up to find both front brakes locked up. I cracked the left bleeder again and both released. I put on all new parts when I put this together. Any ideas where to look? I don't think its the rubber lines means both sides lock. I don't get but a couple of dribbles out of the bleeder when i crack it but the brake lights are on showing pressure in the system and the calipers are clamped. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks |

What master cylinder are you using? If I were a betting man I would say the piston in the master cylinder is froze up. Look at getting a different pedal assembly and shit can what you have. |
