The Ford Barn

Hi,

I have a 1928 (8-1-28) Tudor Sedan. Last weekend, while driving, the split brake shaft that connects the left break rod to the right brake rod came out of place. This left me with no break system at all. It was a very dangerous 20 mile drive home. I want to replace it with the solid bar service brake system. But how do I remove the two old brake bars that are connected to the sides of the transmission? And are there any modification I will need to do so the brake pedal rod connects to the new bar and the front and rear rods connect to the shafts at the end of the bar?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Randy
