Re: Brake question of the month
Thanks! It is a way to get your brake bias as close to "set" as possible without being on the track. Jack up the car and place it on 4 jack stands. If you do not have a "helper" you will need some way to apply the brakes. This is where the ratchet tie down comes in. I use somethi...

Formula Car Trailer For Sale
Nothing fancy but it will easily tow an FV car, has new wiring and lights, good tires, two new coats of Gloss Black Rustoleum, current PA registration, tows straight, title in hand.
