Type III Brakes

I'm accustomed to brakes that will lock up a wheel. Mine don't. I've done the usual things, but no joy. Are there a particular type of brake master cylinders that are use as opposed that work better than others? My master cylinders are MATCO MCMC-5.

You might try 1/8" lines. I had the 3/16" & mine were spongy. Switched to 1/8" solid as a rock.

Thanks Dutch,

I've ordered a parking brake valve and an "Intensifier" to be installed in the master cylinders. Basically what this does is decrease the bore of the master cylinders, thus raising the pressure about 60%. While I'm doing all that, I'll go ahead and reduce the size of the tubing. You still using the same plastic tubing?

I used the 1/8" NBR part # 05-01228 from A.S.
You will also have to get the appropiate fittings part #s 261ub-02 x4ea & 268-02x02 x4ea
