RE: Brakes pedal feel, 87 5K vs 89 100

Hmmmm...Maybe you're right.  The bomb in the 87 has started to go bad and
I'll be installing a new one in the next couple of weeks, so I'll see.  I
think the pedal has always felt this way though, and I actually prefer it.
The 86 4kq pedal has a similar feel, btw.  Maybe it's just a matter of what
one is accustomed to.
