Re: Brake adjustments, stick or no stick
2SP,
Ever since the 1960's all hydraulic brake systems with disc brakes included a proportion valve to even out & regulate brake pedal pressure between the fronts & rear. Discs being superior, in a panic the vehicle could switch ends.
(the theory)
This being a Model A site, lets stay with Model A brakes. Assuming (?) the brake system has been fully restored, the only adjustment is made with the adjusting wedges on each backing plate. Model As had the rear brakes lock while the fronts could spin. (dirt roads) Today most Model A owners prefer the security of having all four brakes working equally ie. adjusted the same.
