Yesterday Norwood joined some elite company around here in the PT Jackstand Class.



46 years ago these weren't bad brakes.........but they are still exceptional emergency brakes.



But these are a little better.........



Today I hope to get all the details figured out and order the parts tonight.



First I'll get backing plates mounted, reinstall the axles, align the calipers with the rotors, check wheel clearance, and finalize e-brake cable lengths so I can order new cables from http://www.controlcables.com/

Then I need to decide how I'll transition and mount the factory brake line on the rear end housing to accept the stainless flex lines. Leaning toward the Wilwood kit 220-7056 http://www.wilwood.com/LineKits/Line...temno=220-7056 I'm thinking I'll just fab and weld a tab on the axle tube to capture the -3 to 3/8-24 IF fitting and be done with it.

After that I'll get the new residual valve installed and work on refinishing the show side of the Wilwood Dynalite calipers.
