My '58 pup needs a brake job in a bad way. I'm fairly mechanical, yet about 5 years ago I had a bad experience doing my own brakes on my 64 chrysler Imperial, -I couldn't get the drums off. Now I'm toying with the Idea of tackling this one my self, but there's that fear inside that says I'm gonna buy all the parts and then not be able to get the drums off. Any words of advice out there or maybe step to take in performing such a repair. Also, since it is all original, should I go in and redo it all including the lines?

I found it to be useful when I rewired my 52 F4. Good luck, Nick If you don't have it email me off line and I can get a copy to you.

As all levels of expertise (and it's inverse) can be found on this mail list, I find a good guiding principle is does it make sense and am I comfortable with it? > Also, since it is all original, > should I go in and redo it all including the lines? When it comes to frames, steering and brakes, it seems to me that if one is not absolutely confident in his abilities to perform a modification or repair in a completely professional way, then he probably shouldn't ( having said that and then thought about some of the professionals I've seen???). In this case, I suggest removing the drums first, followed by a complete inspection of all the parts, including hoses, tubing and the master cylinder. Based upon what is found, anything from a return spring to a new vehicle could be required. As an alternative, I bet you have a friend somewhere close by who has done this kind of work, drag the little bugger over to your place and put 'em to work. 47Fred ------------------------------ From: "B Hale" <wlhale Subject: Bushing Reamer?? Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2000 20:23:21 -0400 I'm finally getting into the restoration of my 50 F-1 and need some help. I'm ready to install the new King Pins, bushings, etc. I have to ream the new bushings after intalling them and was wondering what, where is this tool. I could take the axle to a machine shop but would rather add a tool to my accumulation of restoration tools. Can anyone direct to where I might find a bushing reamer kit? Thanks!
