Thanks for the tips...I will inspect those bolts.
With everything I'm seeing, it's no wonder why the front end made so many noises. I will be sending out the master cylinder but the calipers were decent so I ordered a seal rebuild kit for them. Kurt

I got my "BA" master cylinder back from Karps.....they did a nice job.
I also plumbed the brake lines for my Hurst Line Lock.......Hopefully I don't have any leaks. I'm going to remove the protective coating on the new brake lines so they look like the others and then wire the Line Lock. I plan on getting the front end back together sometime soon Kurt ![]() ![]() ![]()

Not sure where to get them from or who makes them that look the most original. I'm assuming original ones are hard to find and expensive. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] Kurt

I'm having my front end parts sand blasted. I took the brake dust shields and the caliper mounting brackets up to Zinc Inc. in Slinger, WI to get zinc plated.
It only took about an hour and the parts were done. The brackets weren't sand blasted exactly like they should have been (they didn't remove all the old zinc plating) and where the old plating was, it was darker in color so I had them spray some cold galvanizing paint on it. I figured this isn't a concours restoration so it will be fine for the Blue Bomber. It cost me $10 to get the parts sand blasted and $20 to plate them. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] Now I'm waiting for the other parts to get sand blasted and I will paint them. Kurt ![]() ![]()
