Re: front brake upgrade: semi-huck to duo-servo
Part 1 complete - set of reasonably good condition brakes with uprights and steering arms sourced. Might be time to knock up a molasses tank

Re: front brake upgrade: semi-huck to duo-servo
Got a lead on a set of brakes and stub axles on an EH wreck over here for a bottle of Wild Turkey - going to check them out Friday. Plan will be to unbolt the whole shebang from upper and lower wishbones and get all the bits in one go.

Re: front brake upgrade: semi-huck to duo-servo
I have been asking around over here for a set of HD king pin brakes, stubs and steering arms but they are unobtanuim ..... which is hardly surprising.
Guessing EH stuff would be considerably easier to source which is what led to the question regarding energy and cost expended versus benefit ...

Re: front brake upgrade: semi-huck to duo-servo
We were only talking about this yesterday at our club meeting, the main topic of discussion was is it actually worth going to the trouble of doing it ? What sort of improvement are we expecting ???

That's why we are going - we did a day trip from Pt Lincoln a couple of years back to do an oyster tour - you couldn't get the smile off Shahni's face all day

Re: Elle’s 1960 FB 225 mild custom
I put one on my ute - didn't really make a huge difference - guess if the subframe was rusty or fatigued it might make more of an improvement ?

Re: 2025 Nationals
We have a club meeting on Saturday and will find out then - we are sending the ute to Melbourne in late May and spending 2 weeks getting from there to Temora via the coast to SydneyErrol62 wrote: Wed Jan 29, 2025 7:45 pm
How many look like coming over, and can we convoy from Adelaide?

Re: 2025 Nationals
I was thinking Blowering Dam and the high country - better fit a heater in the ute

My ute has been like that since 2010 when I first put it togetherErrol62 wrote: Sun Jan 26, 2025 1:25 pm In the sedan, a short length of black hose and two hose clamps are working well. Similar to factory setup, EJ on.
