Topic: 1946 Ford Flexible Brake Hoses, a question.

  Our 46 Ford has developed a new problem yesterday. It was dragging the brakes and the brake lights would stay on. I'm suspecting it could have collapsed flexible brake hoses. I've never seen a plumbing set up like this and not sure how to proceed. Anyone have pictures or video on this subject?

  I would suspect the master cylinder or it's rigging to the pedal.

  If your brakes are dragging and the brake lights stay on, suspect a flaw or obstruction (dirt) in the master cylinder which is keeping pressure in the brake lines after the pedal has been released.
