It's all there except a master cylinder. The price is right too. The swivel axles are worth twice that as a core. Disc brakes use a 3/4 bore master, the stock Bugeye 7/8 will work but it is a bit of

And here I was trying to give away a much better condition set-up than that one and nobody would come get it. Guess we will have to see how it does on ebay, before I toss it. Crash Ok, so I like the

I would be happy to come and get it as long as it won't cost more than the shipping on that one... ;-) I'm in Louisiana... I would rather buy from a list person than off eBay and yes, it's my bid (59

Well, the bid is mine so now what should I be ordering? What are normal wear parts that I might as well have on hand when the disc kit shows up and actually, what parts are unique to the disc setup?

King pins are different between drum and disc. Get new rubber brake hoses, don't even think of using the old ones. Brake pads and rotors depends on how bad the old ones are. They might be new. Calipe

I would replace ALL of those parts including the a-arms. You could wait for the new fulcrum pins and then check the play in the a-arms, if you want, but in the meantime look for cracks, damage, or o

I just broke apart an old set like yours and found that the fulcrum pin AND the bushings were totally worn out. They rattled like a pencil in a tin cup. Luckily, in my case, I'll just replace the pi
