Re: 64 dodge brake conversion

[gto64gto@xxxxxxxx <gto64gto@xxxxxxxx>]

Lyle, I used a front disc brake conservation on my 65 Satellite by The Right 
Stuff. I've used them several times and have always pleased. I had the same 
problem with the proporting valve leaking at fitting where  the brake 
linecomes into the valve and where it exited. They sent me a second one- 
same problem. I noticed in Jeggs that Willwood had fittings with sealer on 
the threads. I bot a pack, installed them and fixed my problem. I've had no 
more leaks. I think there is a slight pitch in the threads and the thread 
sealer takes care of it. I hope this helps someone.
