Starting
with the front end, we replaced the master Cylinder and Booster.
While it was off, Erik repainted the area under the mount and
clear coated
the inner panels, especially under the newly rebuilt PDWA valve.
This is the prep before the paint work (luckily, no rust)
...........
And
after................with the PDWA.
And with
the booster, master and lines installed.
All of the
lines were pre-bent by Dave at The Roadster Factory and they
all fit perfectly from the master cylinder, right down to the
rear end.
I powder coated the mounting
plate with the chassis parts, so
everything is nice and clean in that area now.
Getting ready for the left
side backing
plate and axle installation.
The right side had to wait
until the new axle seal came in.
Not too bad so far. The
actuators are next, but first....
A little Never Seize doesn't
hurt in here.
Brake shoes, springs and the
wheel cylinder installed.
And those nifty little hold
down clips and pins.
This is the Roadster Factory
lightweight aluminum drum
made by Brembo in Italy and then machined here in the
states.
These drums are ultra light
in comparison to the steel originals.
Too bad the rear wheels will
be hiding this neat & clean parts collection.
Apple Hydraulics rebuilt
Heavy Duty lever shocks.
The emergency brake cable
hookup and TRF brake line to the wheel cylinder.
Back to the right side and
the wheel cylinder and actuator are in place.
A little grease for the shoes
to move on.
Some Never Sieze on the pins
for the emergency brake cable doesn't hurt either.
And the shoes and springs are
completed.
Last step is the brake drum
and two screws. The emergency brake will
be adjusted after the bleeding and final adjustment of the shoes
is done.
I opted for the TRF Stainless
Steel Braided Flex lines for the front and rear.
Moss supplied the "Tee" fittings for the rear brake line
junctions.
Another shot of the TRF
Stainless Steel Braided Flex lines on the right front.
And a view of the left side
as well.
The entire suspension
assembly is now completed, but not torqued yet
Lastly the TRF Rebuilt
Calipers and Hubs including their new Rotors.
The next phase of this project will be the system bleeding.
