New bearings installed in the wheel hubs!

I need to pick up a press to install the wheel studs through the hubs and drums.

I scored a pair of early 13” backing plates! These were hard to find because they used the bolt in style parking brake cables.

Old junk removed!

Brakes completely redone on passenger side!

And brakes completely redone on the drivers side!
