The sport custom Now with pics and vid link. updated 9/28
Got the brakes 90% of the way worked out. Not only did i have the springs for the adjuster and the front shoe swapped around but they also weren't as adjusted as i thought they where.
Now i noticed i still have an inbalance in the system but i also have fluid dripping from the cap after use what cuases that?
now to just replace the radiator and last two freeze plugs and hang an exhust

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

nope, the rubber looks good its only a month old.
I'll bet the way it hardly bled the first time it either has a clogg or collapsed hoses. Next step of course after i tr a good bleed.
