Crashed my sc NEED HELP
The car is fixed and is road worthy again... well except for this one thing
THE BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING, well they work but it feels like they are unassisted, as in i have to physicly push the brakes into the disk to stop the car.
I've searched and searched and done all the reaserch i can for weeks and no one has been able to help me so i turn to you guys.
The rear left e brake line (or at least thats what i think is the e brake line) was cracked in the crash
First question!!!!! DOES THE SC400 (95) NEED THAT LINE TO OPERATE THE BRAKES????
looked all over and no one has helped......
next one.
My power stearing was refilled with brake fluid (gotta love my dad trying to help right?) and then refilled with Power stearing fluid and now i find out i need toyota ATF fluid..
i guess the question is how can i drain my power stearing fluid and replace. read a few threads and i tryed but all i ended up with is brake/power stearing fluid all over the place (shooting out of the pump)
any help would be super... thanks

P.S. they brakes were my favorite part of the car before it got wreaked... E brake is not working very well at all either I basically have to yank the e brake all the way as far as it goes to stop it from rolling, and I have to literally stand on the brakes to stop from rolling forward in drive or reverse

I lost control and spun 180 and backed into the curb at a 45 degree angle, broke the toe arm in half and the traction bar as well as the lower control arm were bent badly
Also lost two rims (left side)
Edit: was leaving an intersection and ht the curb at 35ish

Dont really know about the brake lines but heres the DIY for flushing your power steering liquid, done on an LS400 but same concept for SCs.
