[THK Matt]

ON WITH THE BUILD

[Hyena]

i should be picking up a homebuilt twin stick shortly in trade for one of my singlke shifters.  should be pimp.  trying to order the caliper brackets also but the company doesn't want to pick up the phone.

[Hyena]

bought a bunch of brake crap from autozone.  just need dana 60 wheel hubs and caliper brackets, then i can mount the front tires!

Junkyard

[Hyena]

you can't find dana 60's at the junkyards around here.

[THK Matt]

thats crazy.
hope you find some man.
i could probably pull like 7 D60s at mine.

[Shamb]

yea D60's in a junkyard in this area's like tripping over a piece of gold in your front yard.

looking good Brad, can't wait to see it back on the trail again.

I think this is the longest it's sat!

I don't know if the chevy stuff bolts on to yours but I have all the hub/brake parts from my 60 when I built it.  I converted to 6 lug and replaced everything from the spindle out.  Let me know if you need anything and if it would work for you.

[Hyena]

I need the wheel hub, the part that the rotor bolts to.  If it is an 8 lug chevy then it would be perfect.  i need to buy a special caliper bracket to fit the 3/4 ton brakes.  that is being a real pita right now.

Can you make some?

[Doof]

you have 3/4 on brakes on this?

holy , can you say "stop on a dime"?

[Hyena]

Can you make some?

if they were flat then i could probably make them.  but they have to be bent perfect to fit since the pins for the calipers/pads also thread into the caliper mount.

[Hyena]

ya it should stop pretty good with the newer booster and 1 ton master cylinder too!
