mklotz70 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Not bad for a mail man! LOL Not the kind most people think of when you say that. That's one job at the PO that I wouldn't have.....ever. I fix the equipment that sorts the mail.....or in some cases, shreds it. We do online banking.....I pull too many checks out of the equipment to trust them with my own! lol 3 Quote Link to comment

I had a rent check eaten by the landlord's ATM. Unfortunately they found it while servicing the ATM and gave it back to her :P 2 Quote Link to comment

Bory Posted June 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 So I built this quick jig for the offsets, so when I put em in the chop saw, it's one piece. Worked tits! 5 Quote Link to comment

Bory Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Here is the complete system with spin tech technology, Muffs, I jigged them together, and the pipe transitions from oval to 2-1/2" round. Gonna fab up some hangers during the week, at the moment I have them tacked solid with the angle iron. Tips are to come, once all complete, it comes off weld out and ceramic coating. 3 Quote Link to comment

Won't let me post the img link so that you can see it without having to click the link. Over 2hrs of machining on the mill just to get op1 done.

mklotz70 Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Holy crap is PB sucking lately! I had more pics I was going to post, but it's running so slow it isn't funny. I managed to get a link for this one and it isn't even rotated like it should be. I already edited it to rotate it. It's rotated in the thumbs. No wonder I only do youtube these days. 4 Quote Link to comment

Bory Posted June 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 BH's I'm blown away by your work!! Incredible! Really, can't believe that I'm kinda new on here, I poked around a bit, got you motivated to button up your shelved ball joint venture, and on top of that, worked it out to stretch you to do these 13" brakes wow! And people say there's no Jesus! COM-ON MAN! Great work brother! I wish we could post this piece on every one of these posts here! Crazy work! 3 Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Thanks! :) I sure hope it fits!! lol 1 Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Well.....they almost fit. The part I was worried about came out perfect......the part I thought I had correct because I got the dimensions online from wilwood.....wrong. Haven't had time to figure out what to do about it. Basically, the caliper is centered on the rotor very nicely, but the pad overhangs the rotors a bit more than 1/8". Sorry for the orientation. F'in PB again!! I've reoriented them and they look okay in the album, but here on the forum, they're still wrong. Damn they're annoying! **edit**....I guess they're just really slow. Came and refreshed and most show up right. 4 Quote Link to comment
