Guest Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 Have 1928 4-dr sedan Chrysler that has been sitting for about 8 years. None of the brakes worked at first. After bleeding each of the lines, we got fluid to all four wheels, but only the two back brake-pistons expand when we press the brake pedal. Have the front two cylinders locked up permanently or is there something else we can check? Dad and I are strictly amateurs at this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordee9r (Ron Springstead) Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 Had same problem on my '37 Chrysler. My front cylinders are a step bore and after removing them, I eventually got them apart using penetrating oil and a brass punch. The cylinders cleaned up nicely with a hone so I installed rebuild kits. Unfortunately, over a period of time, fluid would seep out and my pedal was gone. Had to end up buying new cylinders after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
