Custom Works has the brackets to mount a Type 2 pump on the motor in a similar manner. Scroll to the bottom http://customworksperformance.net/suspension.html

Just throwing it out there in case anyone is interested.

This really is a great thread Sieg! There is a lot of good info in here. You keep referring to your car as a budget car which is fine but it really is a killer build. It looks like you are having some fun with it minus the frustrating moments, those just make it worth it in the end
(I think maybe ).
In some of the photos I couldn't help but stop and stare at the picture and think "MAN THAT LOOKS NICE!"

Question: where does a guy get himself some braided wire loom like this?







Oh! and good thing I didn't un subscribe before page 60 something because then I wouldn't have been able to make this re surface!

Thank you

Summit has the braided cover in smaller quantities, here's a link to one of a few diameters:

I've been looking around at wire loom myself lately. I found this source to have anything I would want to make my looming look professional. They have braided and NOMEX.

Back to business......

Decided to stay with hard lines inside stainless 'gravel guard' on the rear end housing with a stainless flex lines to the housing and calipers.

Prepped the calipers for paint


Applied Krylon BBQ paint and about 20 minutes after painting used a razor blade to remove paint from the raised lettering.


Made these brackets out of 2x2 tubing then decided the base was overkill and cut it in half before plug welding to the tube.




Mockups





Hopefully today I'll slip the axles back in and index the backing plates and get them secured, fab the hardlines, mock fit it all again and align the calipers then disassemble and paint, and tomorrow reassemble and bleed the system.

Hopefully......assuming the rotor and caliper alignment doesn't create challenges.

good job, Scott!

It will pose a challenge, but you will get through it. LOL

And you will be back on the road again...

What pads are you running?
