Re: Project 68 - Radical Rebirth of my First Truck
I'm not sure why pictures come out sideways here sometimes. Well the brackets are done for the pedal assembly. I'm confident that if I needed to stop in a hurry it is sufficiently braced and tied into the cowl structure. I'm running a 3/4" bore front cylinder and 7/8" bore rear. 6-piston front calipers and 4-piston rear. Pedal ratio is 6.25:1. Bias will be about 4-6 turns to the rear. I can't wait to feel the brakes. According to Wilwood this is a tried and true combination. Should be no need for power brakes either.
Probably back to fitting the rockers and sheet metal shortly. I prefit the rockers about a year ago. Heavily sliced and diced. I'm happy with the fit of the driver's side but the passenger side has a strange bow to it. I've tried Keyparts/Triplus from both GMC Pauls and a set from Top Banana. I've tried Tabco. SoKyClassics house brand (these were the worst). I'll get some pics back up when I'm finally happy with the fit.
