RadioRedline Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Tonight was all about 521 Brakes! Rear Pass doesn't move at all (seized) and driver rear just barely. So took some brake cleaner to em, and I have Nabco Wheel Cylinders... Would like to rebuild them because 8$ for the kits for 2 cyls vs. 100$ is a big difference. also thinking that the front suspension needs some love. But its a combination of the wheel cyls, adjustment, and master cyl (getting replaced too, just to be safe) Radio Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Don't just replace something unless you know it is bad or have a recommendation. If the entire system is very old/rotten then a good idea to look at , but make sure you very light hone the wheel cylinders with a wheel cylinder hone before replacing seals , and make sure wheel cylinders are not pitted as well as brake bleeder valves are free ( they break many times when tighten too much / rusted / or old ! ) Adjust all 4 corners of the brakes first ( if you have all drums ) immediately after wheel cylinder replacement/refreshment ;) Quote Link to comment

jrock4224 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 i heard if you taste the brake fluid and it tastes metallic or like a 9 volt battery you have a bad brake pedal lever and you should replace it... 1 Quote Link to comment

RadioRedline Posted August 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Slight problem. Tonight I was pieceing back together reassembling my gray 620 and I got pulled over and given an inspection ticket (no fine) because I had no tail lights on route to car wash! I have headlights, signals front and back, high beams, Brake Lights, but no tails or licence light I also noticed.. So if I fix by friday and show cops, I avoid a 150$ fine. I was under for an hour, seems to be that one wire broke off the back of the driver side. I get some test leads, and reconnect, no dice. So then I swipe the driver side light unit from my yellow 620, and same result, no brakes, no licence light. I triple made sure all the plugs were connected, and then I went to the fuse box, and we're golden no probs there, tried new fuse, etc. Its like I have no constant?? What the fuck am I doing wrong/does this sound familiar to any 620 ppl? Radio Quote Link to comment
RadioRedline Posted August 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 So It must be the Bulb and/or that loose wire, so gonna have a second look at it later today. Also ordered Raybestos Wheel Cyls for the rear of my 521! Radio Quote Link to comment

RadioRedline Posted August 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Got er all fixed up late last night..it was a host of problems, broken wire, melted section, dirty contacts, and a short. But now its beautiful, and when i went to the Cop Shop this morning to show em my taillamps, he's like "You know you don't have any mirrors on this thing?" I said, haven't put em back yet because I just Painted it etc, and Also Had windows rolled down and he said, "does this thing have windows?" (implying that I rolled em down to cover up side tint) So I said...yeah and showed him that we had no Tint lol. He was one of the jelly eating donut types, shaking his head the whole time lol, trying to nab me with something, and then tough guy he is "You get this thing fixed up, or DON'T BE DRIVING IT"...I'm shaking in my boots...he or the original cop who pulled me over didn't ticket me b/c in Saskatchewan, when your vehicle is Antique Plated, (older than 1980) you are subject to no SGI Inspections/not needed. The thing in this Province is everyone has a sunday cruiser, cops incl. Rat Rod or Hot Rod...Farmer with a 46' Chevy Rusted out, Patina style, or City Retiree with a 75' Olds Toranado original owner... Radio Quote Link to comment
RadioRedline Posted August 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Recieved my 521 Master Cyl, and ordered a flasher for my Gray 620! Here are some cell pics from last nights adventure. And a SL63 AMG in Service for Oil Change This morning! Radio Quote Link to comment
lil89ram50 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 bump, any updates? Quote Link to comment
RadioRedline Posted August 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 got the brakes and wheels back on the 521 tonight, and loaded up the Big Dirty Oil to take to Benz to recycle. Have to change oil on Benz tomorrow is the plan, and then afternoon is looking likely that my father in law can be free to yank the L20b. Brakes on 521 already seem better, Cleaned them all up. But when Wheel Cylinders come in (ordered Friday) will replace the back two (Raybestos) and have a New Master Cylinder to swap in from Napa. Oil has been changed, and Wixed the air cleaner too. Then I can start rebuild of the L20B for swapping in Gray 620 is the current plan. Also excitingly did something new to me tonight. I Cleaned, lubed, serviced and made work again an antique Ratchet I bought at an auction sale couple weeks ago. Pics coming. Radio Quote Link to comment
