Very nice....

**CC69Rat** · 04-19-2012, 10:26 AM

I don't think it will turn those 22's. .. I bet it won't.

Raul, such meticulous work. Seriously man, you could work for a high end Rod shop (Foose / Allen Callaway) any of those guys.

Have you ever considered opening up a place like that to do drops, fab work, etc. (?) I would imagine in that area you'd have a lot of business. Drops R Us meets Unique Whips kind of place.

Just throwing it out there.

raull · 04-21-2012, 11:22 PM

today i persuaded my boy into the garage , the deal was i had to play mw3 with him after !!!!! anyways he finished stripping the inside of the truck , seat doors, fuel tank and lines , meanwhile i finished the hydroboost internal rod, cut it to right lenght gave it a round radius at each end and did a small groove 1/8 wide by 1/16 deep for the plastic washer that holds the spring and put back together ,hand drill on a press stole the show today in my garage ,

tomorrow i will flip the bracket on the unit so that the lines will be at bottom for a cleaner look and do the install

hahahah , glad you boys are having fun , meantime someone is building here , i had to oped the firewall hole a bid bigger for the new unit to fit , usually there is a bracket that they sell but bit its a few inches thick , i wanted the unit flush so it wouldt stick out so much , i flipped the bracket and made new holes to match the factory bolts out of the firewall , also made the brake lines , they are tie rapped for now until i get some nice line dividers

69CST-V · 04-22-2012, 06:36 PM

Nice work.....Very clean

Oh and I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you. BTW I think you earned one of those left over adult beverages. Have one on me.

the upper studs are part of the inner main brake pedal bracket so they need to stay , i could weld the upper part on the inside but that is the actual factory look so im good with that
