If you have no fluid leaks or air {vacuum leaks}, try a pressure bleeder. A proportioning valve may be sticky or there may be a blockage. How are the hoses?? If they are old, they can break up interna ...

Most CV joints, axle shafts and half shafts are reman stuff. I don't see any need to worry about their use. In all my years of working on cars and replacing them, I've never had one fail.

I carried a fully assembled 440 in the back of a Chevette. From oil pan to carb, manifold to manifold. Top speed was seriously affected, braking sucked, and suspension was bottomed out. Even got a spe ...
