Default Brakes coming on

Check any breather on the master cylinder. On the 409, the brake fluid level cap was replaced by plain pug- no breather. When brakes got warm, fluid expanded and calipers came on. just a thought

Default Ball joints

Amsteer will make you track rod ends to pattern. They made me a couple for my 412 some years ago. Very helpful Company (then).
