Sorry to see these great builds getting finished, as I now have nothing to read, maybe another will come along shortly

Maybe one of your pucks is hanging up slightly on your front brakes, or adjustment on the rears

Those door screw "thingys" I had to make out of two pieces because of their odd shape. I made the basic shape on the lathe, and cut the backside of them on the mill to fir the contour radius of the door. The part that actually goes through the hole in the door was a separate piece that was silver soldered to the part that's actually seen. Not real rocket science. Would be an easy job with anyone with a 3D printer.

The front pistons are fine (I assume) because there's no pull on the steering wheel. In fact, I can let go of the wheel and hammer the brakes on, and the wheel won't move at all. I never really thought about one of the rear brake shoes being too tight. Not sure if that would cause it, but I'll definitely take a look at it.

I got a P0101 code come up ( Mass air flow sensor ) so trying to get rid of that. All minor stuff that's expected when building something from the ground up.
