This car has a racecar style braking system with dual master cylinders and a balance bar for tuning. Last fall I nearly crashed when exiting an off ramp and had NO brakes...</div><div class=""> After renewing rotors and pads and bleeding the brakes I have discovered that the balance bar is sticking and flipping back and forth . Actually up and down would be more accurate. It seams that the rear brakes require less travel of the master cylinder so the front master cylinder moves much more. This is causing the balance bar to achieve quite alot of angularity. As it moves in and out it sometimes flips up or down and sometimes it actually sticks and refuses to push the left (front) master cylinder in. This seams strange to me as this has worked fine for several years.Any suggestions??</div><div class=""> Thanks. P.J.</div></div>
