Yes I will just get the same stuff Rossco bought from road runner.
Just spent a couple of hours in the shed and finally got the brake assembly apart!

I will sell my Ironman winch and light force spotlights to fund it.
Yeah you've done well. Even if you get a reasonable one it's a good idea to put a kit through motor upgrade solenoid new rope . . . It adds up. Yours will be better than new when done.
Let's just say that yours inspired me =)Quote:

But before sandblasting I am going to take the lower housing into the welders to get the tabs welded on to match the end plate, and ask them to modify the drum to suit the bearing.
Then when tax comes back I will order the parts I need from the states... Can't wait to get this thing finished and on the car!
