Default Re: hydraulic brakes , 1936 spindles

Another advantage to the 41 and later square back spindles is there are cheap disc brake brackets available that use late model rotors. Disc brakes are no more expensive than the repro front bendix backing plates. http://ecihotrodbrakes.com/early_for...nversions.html I'm doing this right now. You do have to buy a steering bracket and tie rod which are both cheap as well.

I will be using 40 wheels but an adapter is available for using 36 wheels.


I'll have to compliment Richard(EV8G) as being very helpful over the phone. I bought the 36 ebrake setup from him. I am using MT Car products rear backing plates and drums.
