Isn't it fun watching your bank account drain every month. So tell me why don't you have those tires yet.

How do you flush mount the brake booster???, that really gives it a clean look.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
just take off the bracket on the back of the brake booster re-drill the holes to match and redo the mounting point on the brake pedal arm on the inside

Have you mocked up your steering column yet with this done? I've read about interference with a column shifter hitting the booster. I would love to do this as well, but that issue is stopping me.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
when i had it mocked up the linkeage wasnt hooked up so...if it does i am sure there is a way to remedy it i have seen several driving with this done, i would think you could just shorten the arm that the linkeage attaches to ?? maybe not i havent tried, but it is an idea

The wheels look killer mounted on those tires; can't wait to see them on the truck.
