Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: Disc Brake Question



Doc,
 I got the setup off from an 82 concord. Unfortinatly all I could use was the spindles. I bought new wheel bearings, new seals, new rotors, new calipers, and new pads. The brake hoses were 39.00 ea so I just hooked the old ones back up for the time being.I just bought a new one off ebay for 7 bucks. I am on the search for another.  
 I also bought new upper and lower ball joints, new idler arm, and new outer tie rods which I have yet to install. I still am looking for good prices on inner tie rods and a pitman arm. I am going to get new HD v-8 front springs. When it gets warmer I will take the whole front end appart and sand blast everything and paint it with SEM rust controll.
Right now I am working on the house and the honey do lists I get.

I checked on a price for the hoses and I believe they were 40$ a piece a few years ago. Sounds a little inflated to me. Also when I replaced the yellow Hornets rear with one out of a Concord the rear brake hose was not the same. The 79 Concord hose was not available, but the 74 Hornet one was and fit with only a minor modification on the chassis mounting bracket to make up for the differnt mounting of the hose on the Concord rear.
