Hey hank im not sure if they do ss lines but bearing service up here in shreveport builds custom lines for all kinds of applications.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I'll give them a call tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up!Hey hank im not sure if they do ss lines but bearing service up here in shreveport builds custom lines for all kinds of applications.
Don't mean to crash your thread, but I've been working on cars since I was about 12 and that was a ways back, let's say the early 70's anyway.I'm curious to know how much better the disc brakes work than the drums?

I know disk brakes have always been the *%#@, but I've been told on several occassions that when it comes to these big toys the drums are the way to go on daily drivers with people that have a budget in mind.
The way it's been explained to me is that when you are talking about brake pads it's all about contact surface and everyone knows the drums have way more contact surface than the disk brakes do and though they may apply more pressure per square inch with disk brakes that means more wearing on the pads, therefore replacing the disk pads more. This is the reason all the big rigs have always used the big drum brakes (yes I know some newer trucks are going disk)
Now I'm not beyond saying I'm wrong, I was wrong once in 1993, I said I do and so did she and there you go.
I'm willing to hear the rebuttle.
I'm not slacking. My new brake lines will be here Wednesday.My major thing i hate with drum brakes is when they get mixed with mud. That's why i like the idea of disc.
LOOKING GOOD HENRY!!!!! Stop slacking and test this puppy out. !!!!
Everything will be desert tan (frame/body/wheels). I got a $3 Behr sample from Home Depot and it looks great!Ooh, paint, I love me some paint! Lets watch this thing turn green! (Or will it be another color?)
