1983 Mustang Brakes

1983 Brakes
More than Pads and Shoes
The most common brake parts that need attention are the front pads and rear discs. These are relatively easy to change, and can really make a huge difference in your brake performance. Your front rotors and rear drums are also parts that need to be changed from time to time as they will wear out with repeated use. But with a car that is over 30 years old, there are some other, less common brake parts to consider:
• Lines and hoses: These carry the brake fluid, and can rust and create leaks
• Rear parking brake cables: If you don’t use your parking brake frequently, it can seize or fail
• Seals, gaskets and fittings: Over time, these can degrade, and eventually create fluid leaks
It’s important to inspect your brakes on a regular basis and determine if anything needs replacing. And if you already have some brake components to replace, it’s also smart to do some preventative maintenance so that you’re starting off with safe, reliable brakes again.
Easier than You Might Think
It’s easy to assume that something as important and safety-related as brakes might be complicated, but replacing your pads and shoes is surprisingly easy. With a good repair guide, anyone can follow the steps and get their brakes back to proper working order.
