I need to either restore & adapt my 1950 AD original foot pedal parking brake and linkage to a 12 bolt rear end or replace it with a universal kit. I have all but a few of the original parts but of course they're pretty crusty. By the time I priced replacements it added up pretty quickly. I'm thinking one of you has replaced his with a universal kit with fewer headaches and dollars. If so let me know which kit and how it worked for you please. Thanks!
