Three B's Racing Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 I recently replaced my 15/16 ZX MC with a 7/8" 280ZX MC. I had to shorten the push rod I had 0.25" in order to get it and the clevis up and in then simply adjusted it's length on it's threads. Works great and stops and feels much much better then the ZX master. I have 4 wheel disks so I had to use the pressure valve for the rear disks from the ZX master in the 7/8" 280Z master. Man that is a lot of work to replace a clevis that works, but yours is a much better design and stronger. 2 Quote Link to comment

This vid shows the clevis I use now. 1 Quote Link to comment
