Thanks flashed.
Final mirror mockup is done and they should have all the functionality of the originals. |
Re: 72 K30 Build
Pretty damn neat Brett! It has been months since I have been on here. Took me forever I catch up lol.

Thanks Mike, good to hear from you! Hope you guys are having a great summer.
While the cab is still on the frame we needed to resolve our park brake and decided to take First c10 (Scott) advise from last year. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&postcount=382 Removed the old cables that came with the K35 donor to double check my measurements and get ready for new stuff. |
Re: 72 K30 Build
Been a long time since we heard from that build!

All new cable from the factory pedal back to the drums w/o the use of an intermediate cable. The 2 into 1 bracketry is pretty slick and will be hidden inside the frame rail. |
Re: 72 K30 Build
Hey Brett looking good. That is pretty close to what I did. I just used the stock front cable. Of course I have not tried it other that pulling on it by hand but it seems the work great on the rear Caddy discs.

Re: 72 K30 Build
Wow, that's a whole lot cleaner look than factory cables!
|
Re: 72 K30 Build
Damn, that does look nice. Is that the "EZ bracket style" or Side pull?
Be interested to know what that setup cost? |

Just needs the factory style square firewall grommet and adjust up the brakes some more, but it does what it’s supposed to do. I’ll finish mounting the long primary cable after the cab is back off the frame. We will see if the rear cables need anything more once the weight of a bed is added. |
Re: 72 K30 Build
Awesome, thanks for posting.

No problem webfoot.
Cab is coming back off and should be painted next time it goes back on. Now that the ebrake is sorted and it looks like the drums/hubs should on there for a while we finally sealed and filled the rear differential. |
Re: 72 K30 Build
I had those tires on my 71 K20, and really liked them.

Re: 72 K30 Build
As usually, it looks great. I am excited about that cable, thanks for posting. I've been scratching my head about how to accommodate all the oddness in my green truck. Looks like that may be the ticket.

Re: 72 K30 Build
Looks like you had a fun weekend! Did you go through a bunch of the little maroon scotch discs digging that stuff out, or do you have another method? That cab looks to be in incredible shape!

Re: 72 K30 Build
Very nice! You are so lucky to be able to take it in and get it back done the same day! Plus, you can probably leave it like that for a few days before it starts flash rusting. Unlike here. Haha

Re: 72 K30 Build
This is awesome Brett!
I hope you don't get in trouble for posting nude pics though! :lol::lol: |
