I test drove a 1975 JH that I ultimately purchased a couple of days ago. It was my first time ever driving a JH. The one issue (well, maybe the most glaring issue) I found is that the brake pedal was extremely hard to press. With significant force, it did slow the car, but I don't think I ever made it over about 15 or 20 mph. It felt very different from every other car I have ever driven, primarily that it took so much force. Is this normal? It did have a v6 swap in it, and I wonder if perhaps there is no vacuum assist, assuming of course, that a 1975 JH brake system needs vacuum assist. Maybe this is a brake booster issue?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
TIA
