Hi everyone,

Just put in a new mastercylider (15/16) and booster in my CX. Put in a rear disk conversion with new pads. I already had a Fastbrakes Wilwood kit w/ two piece rotors. We filled the system with new ATE Super blue fluid and took it for a test drive.
After about 2 miles the pedal got firmer and firmer with each stop. Then the brakes got tighter and tighter, the car went slower and slower until the car just stopped in the middle of the road! I couldn't pull over, move it or anything. Stranded in the middle of the road with the brakes locked.

I ended up calling a friend to bring a 10mm wrench so I could crack a line to move the car.

Can anyone help me with this? Any ideas? What to look for? HELP!

 

I am going through the same thing right now, I believe something is wrong with ur master cylinder.........my brakes locked up on me too after a rear disk conversion

I out in a new master cylinder and that prblem went away, now I have a whole new problem, my brakes work when they want......get a new master cylinder, that will fix it

 

Were these used master cylinders? I have one coming in the mail that will be installed with my swap.

Any luck with the newer mcs?

 

yes this was used master cylinders, I got a brand new one from a place by my house, now I have other prblems with y brakes
