problems!!!
ok, can someone please answer a stupid question for me? Bear with me here, I am new to this stuff, but, How do I make the actuating rod stay in the MC??? Am I wrong to assume it just sits in there without snapping into place somehow? Is the rubber boot supposed to cover the rod all the way to the threads, thus (kind of) holding it in place?? Do I need a stop pin or spring of some sort to keep my brake pedal from falling forward and pulling out the rod? Help! Thanks in advance!

the MC is a tandem wilwood aluminum, and the actuating rod is a T Performance 4 3//4 inch version.

I'm not an expert.
but I drive a few cars (buick,chevy,ford,dodge )
and they all stop.
I'm not sure about all models but the ones I've worked on .
" Yes " it does just sit there ,the pedal holds it in , the rubber boot holds some "when new" but it's just a dust cover .
Sounds to me you need to do some adjusting /longer rod/a stop on the pedal / something (quote > to keep my brake pedal from falling forward and pulling out the rod) . hope that helps.
