Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Rear End Change

[Ed Veneck <edveneck@xxxxxxxxx>]

After building my Versailles rear and using their brakes, I will agree with you there.  The Versailles disk brake brake set-up is a BS design.  If I would have know what I know now I never would have used it.  That is why I told Rick, that I would not use one.

Anyway, unless I sell mine I will use it.  Also people don't understand that, to build a bulit proof rear end, it is not cheap.  People cannot believe how much I have in mine.

You will find the brakes for that rear are VERY expensive. I got wilwood rear disks for mine cheaper than factory parts.

Rock Auto is about the only place that I found that has most of the brake part that you will need.  Check them out at http://www.rockauto.com   As for the brake line being on the wrong side (the driver side), what I did was to make a small tab from a peice of 1/4" x 1" x 1" and drill and tap it for 1/4 - 20 bolt, than welded it to the housing on the passager side of the housing and used it to mount my brake line fron the housing to the body.  I'll post a few pics of it this week end.

Thanks for the responses. Did find one from a Versailles complete with disc brakes. Will let you know how it works out.
