Brake Trouble.
Hello, looking for a little help, having trouble since I put my new hydra-vac on my N-600. The brakes seem to have locked up now. Does anybody have any ideas here? Thanks, Greg.

From the cardone hydrovac ten problems post

"Check the following: brake fluid for contamination, proper master cylinder push rod adjustment, frozen wheel cylinders or calipers, restricted hose(s). If OK, water is present in the brake fluid causing it to expand and apply pressure to the brake assemblies. Flush the system."

Top Hydro-Vac Questions

Good luck
