Do: - Ensure your Mav has brakes that match its power levels. Don't: - Start tearing into your vehicle before you have a fully matured direction...
I poked around on my parts shelves and found a 15/16" bore MC. Took it apart and found a gelatin-like, somewhat gritty, residue on the seals....
What's funny is the similarity of the part number of the gasket listed in the diagram (28160) and the Ford number for the cork gasket supplied by...
I think the effort required is high by comparison to power brakes, yes. That's obvious; otherwise brake boosters would not exist. However, I...
Okay... I do have the cork gaskets on there. I just didn't recognize that round gasket in the diagram. It looked like something in addition to the...
Hey again guys. So, I'm getting the brakes back on the Mav so I can get it off the jackstands and rolling again. However, as I was reassembling...
I had consider a booster briefly, but I have everything on the car "gutted" to try to save weight. No PS, PB, A/C, heat, etc. I smoothed the...
Thanks all. I took the manual disc prop valve from the '74 when I grabbed the spindles. My original manual drums had much easier braking effort....
I wouldn't have thought so either, but after the swap I was like, "It seems unreasonable that Ford cleared a vehicle for production with this much...
Hey guys. It's been a while since I posted. Trying to get back into the Mav again. So, my '70 came with manual drums, all the way around, from...
Great. Thanks for the info guys. My '70 did have a black engine bay from the factory, but I took that coating off a few years ago to smooth the...
So, body-color engine bays were indeed a "thing" then? I was up in the air about what to do with mine. I was going to do black at first, but I...
Did our Mavericks have a body-color or black engine bay from the factory? I have seen many pics of, seemingly, factory engine bays that appear to...
I know this thread is old, but for the love of Blue Ovals, please tell me these guys are working on a Grabber trunk spoiler set. They've already...
Seems most believe both vehicles have comparable wheels/tires. I agree the front of the green Mav is over-sprung. I remember I had a buddy with...
This first picture looks like the Mav has 14 inch wheels because of the wheel well clearance. Anyone else agree? [IMG] This Mav has 245/60R15...
Thanks for the "heads-up" guys. I haven't been on the forum in a while either, so I'm going to have to get reacquainted with who all is still...
Interesting... could that issue with Maverick Man's products just be the result of an initial run? Has the quality improved any since your...
Hey guys. It's been a bit, but I'm picking away at the Maverick again and I haven't looked into the parts market in years. Does anyone offer a...
Fel-Pro Perma Dry blue. Gaskets are virtually bulletproof and re-usable. Used in all my builds.
