roush69stang 10 Report post Posted June 28, 2008 Hello all. First post on this page. I recently replaced my drum braked 8 inch with a disc brake 9 inch. Where would you all suggest putting the brake bias adjuster. Plumbing it in the engine compartment or just before the rear end? Puting it in the back would make for a cleaner install. Do you think road debris would be an issue back there? Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

burritoboi5 10 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 I've seen it installed under the driver seat so as that it can be accessed while driving. It's what they do in most race cars and stock cars for sure. If you are careful you can hide it quite easily and it's pretty darn handy. I saw it somewhere on this forum a year or so ago when someone else did it. -Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bnickel 10,004 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 race cars generally put them in the drivers compartment next to the driver but i have also seen them mounted on street cars under the car near the driver seat so the driver can lean out and adjust it easily. personally i wouldn't want to put one there though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
