flatcat19 Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 That is good to know but it only happens warm. Backed the fronts off after work. Still dragging when warm. I'll have to take the front apart and see what's going on. Fuckity-do-da. 1 Quote Link to comment

tr8er Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 It's great parked. Its the rolling part that's starting to piss me off. Talk to Tanker. He has a trick. Calls it a trailer or something. 3 Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Thank you. So, brake question for the 521 guys... Cold, everything works fine. Stops great. Tools smooth. When warm, feels like brakes aren't releasing. Cruising slow, step on clutch to switch gears truck almost stops all on its own. Pedal rod adjustment? Something I'm overlooking? This happened to me once and I was SURE that it was the brakes getting hot and expanding against the drums.Make sure that inside the brake fluid reservoir, there isn't that small screen/cup-type filter restricting fluid flow, causing fluid to return to the master cylinder slowly; I chased this problem round and round on a 521 once. Removing the small screen allowed fluid to return through the M/C at a normal rate and solved this problem. 2 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 ^^^that would have taken a while to figure out. Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Wheels look great white. Make sure the drums are turned. Alot of chinese drum come from factory warped. If drums ok just back it off another notch Persoanlly I think drums are fine for a slow rig like a 521. I had a Master cylinder build up pressure and not release.Had to pop the rear blled screw to release the presse otherwise I wouldnt make it home buring up the brakes But all 4 sides would get hot. I replaced Master and all was fine. Put some front bumpers on that truck Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 By the way, I like your side mirrors. One of my favorite setups. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 By the way, I like your side mirrors. One of my favorite setups. The only part I don't like, both are convex. I'd love for one to be flat. I'm just not buying another mirror to correct. My luck, the mirror I'd buy would be a different finish. Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Where did you buy them? Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Off Amazon. I can find the seller's name and I still have the box. I emailed the buyer to ask if I could buy one...no answer, ever. Fuck that guy. 1 Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 I found some at summit racing and was wondering if those are the same... 1 Quote Link to comment

KoHeartsGPA Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 That's the thing...they don't appear to be flat :( 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted March 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I'll look up the ones I bought. Unless it says CONVEX they're flat. 1 Quote Link to comment
