I had to change one bolt on the drivers side for the brake kit. No one had one anywhere around me not even my go to Aquidneck fasteners. I had to order them from McMaster-Carr, which they were great I ordered 2AM Monday and had them 4pm Tuesday. Can't ask for anything better than that. The drivers side is all put back together with the caliper all shimmed and ready to go with the e brake inside the hub.
Now the passenger side is another story. I put all the shims on the axle because of the weird off set i had made ( totally my fault ) so we put the bolts in and start tightening them up, grade 8 fine thread with crush nuts. ( slightly out of round for a locking effect.) First three going fine just to snug for an even clamping. Go around again to finish tighten same three fine fourth one Seized like you wouldn't believe! I'm not a little guy and my buddy has hands twice my size, it kicked the crap out of us!! Wouldn't budge we tried everything we had. Only one thing left. Die grinder with a cut off wheel. First we had to dis connect the coil over for room then get ready for some fun. we sliced the head of the bolt and he got under there and chiseled the rest off. which went pretty easy for what we were expecting it to be. Luckily I ordered 2 extra bolts. But that ended the fun for the day.
This is the one that's done
Here's the carnage.
and the cause of the problem. When I had the rear built it got old Ford big bearings and I wanted the in hat parking brake and it needed different off set on the axle. so a special kit had to be put together. The kit is great but getting the housing ends to work is all the fun.
