I have recently changed my brake master, and I've had some issues.
One of the things that was suggested was that the rod from the brake pedal to the master may not be the correct depth. The rod was set perfectly for the prior master, but that was 17 years ago. I'm going to pull the pedal cluster out to check depth. What is the right way to make sure the plunger is the right length? Zach |

Boy, did this post come at the right time. I tried to back the 68 911 out of the garage for the first time of the year and all of the brakes were locked up. I had rebuilt the calipers in 2021, installed a new master and rubber lines at that time.So I jacked it up and removed and cleaned all 4 calipers. I saw this post and checked the rod depth. It wasn’t allowing the brakes to release! I readjusted it this morning and all is well.
Thank you 914world! Charlie |
