Rear Disk Update

IT'S BEEN A MONTH OR TWO SINCE I CONVERTED THE REAR TO DISK. NO PROBLEMS SO FAR. E-BRAKE HOLDS AND STOPPING IS GOOD AND IT DID'T COST AN ARM AND A LEG.

The disc conversion looks excellent as your wheels do.

Are the brackets in the pics templates? What are the measurements of these brackets? Will they fit on 8.5" x 11" paper? If so, is it possible to make a drawing of them so you can scan an image? Many of us would be very grateful.

Porportioning valve and master cylinder. What did you use for these items?
