Rear brake bias adjusters

[John Powell]

Over the last few years I've gotten tired of guessing about changing rear brake pads as well as tires whenever the weather looks "iffy", so I'm thinking of installing rear brake bias adjusters. There seems to be several choices available, with both lever and knob adjusters, from manufacturers such as Tilton and Willwood. As such nice toys weren't generally available when I first raced back in the age of the dinosaurs, I don't have much experience with them, so maybe some of you young lads who have bias adjusters could share your experience with an old fart on such things as price, quality, ease of installation, dependability/performance, availability, etc. for the various ones on the market. Phew! That's a long way of saying "help - I don't know much about these suckers!" :rolleyes:

I know Edelbrock also makes a dial style bias adjuster. I've sold a couple of them to customers.

Just got mine for x-mas John. Metric threaded Tilton lever type. Looks uber easy to install. Requires minor re-plumbing of the brake system - but trivial. I'll let you know how well it works later this year ;)
