- In this episode I tackle the leaking brake calipers and we confirm if our previous fixes are holding. All of this is under the gun as I am desperately trying to take the Fury on an out of town adventure with my lady. It is my sincerest hope that all goes well, and this is the final big test. Hopefully. Enjoy.

Cool deal ! The car is really coming along. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for the encouragement. Seems this one is fighting me a bit. I am ready to sit back and just drive it. Unfortunately I am just not there yet.
Keep plugging away ,you"ll get it
I would so love to have a car like that; we grew up with a '69 Plymouth Custom Suburban wagon (Fury II equivalent).
Couple of things FYI. Your head light was causing some flickering on the video (not too bad though).
The positioner clips for the calipers may not be needed if you ever need to update the pins. At some point they changed the rubber bushings and the pins to work without the positioner clips, current hardware kits no longer come with them, or even the anti-rattle spring (and old kits for restorers or reproduction positioners for the truly finicky are expensive!).
We always used to stick a piece of 1x4 wood between the piston and the caliper when blowing the piston out; my uncle pointed out a hole in the ceiling of his shop that was made by a piston that "someone" blew out with too much pressure that came back down and broke the windshield of a customer's car... a mistake he only made once!
Please let us know how the brakes work! I'm converting my front drum car to disks with the same Kelsey Hayes style calipers as yours.
I love the story about the wagon and the caliper hole. I think I was really lucky. Won't make that mistake again. Thanks for the heads up on the light, I will try and watch for that. That is good info about the updated pins. I will look out for them in the future. Spoilier, the brakes are working awesome. no issues there. But I still have some gremlins. Looks like I can't sit back and enjoy it quite yet.
