I just did a front brake conversion on my 71 cutlass conv. I used inline-tube co. the total package cost $700. It cam with every thing from the brake booster to the pads including new spindles. Although I was happy with everything my brakes just caught on fire yesturday. to make a long story short I found the push rod for the master cylinder to be a hair too long, therfor not allowing fluid back to the resivior. I dont understand why this would happen when you buy all the parts from one suppler in a kit. I WOULD NOT USE INLINE-TUBE AGAIN.
