Going to look at a Cuda tomorrow morning. The pedal is apparently stuck halfway down. Anyone seen this before? Any Ideas? I'm guessing it is either that offset linkage or the booster, but have never heard of this problem.Any tips appreciated

If the master cylinder has rust in the bore, or the Brake pedal-to pushrod bolt is too tight, it may cause a bind.

(1) A hemi cuda? If I was closer I should come along to keep you company (2) might split the M/C from the booster and seperate it several inches to isolate them to find out which one is the culprit.

oh ok, that is funny, my bad, i just assumed...

dual diaphram bendix I assume again??

I got mine from a guy in nevada--- who had a guy rebuild it--- that was supposed to be one of the best at rebuilds, i'll see if I can track that source down and let you know. Should be relatively easy to find a company to get that done.

Bush Power Brake 1(619) 474-8906 ask for Steve. His shop is a bit far from you but he does excellent work. 90%+ of the local shops that advertise booster rebuilding actually send the booster or M/C to him and then mark up the price and take credit for his work.
