The prototype is being machined. I can't hurry my vendors since this is not a high dollar project.
The PBR bracket is fit to a Granada spindle and uses 2 piston PBRs.
The prototype is being machined. I can't hurry my vendors since this is not a high dollar project.OK its been about a week and a half since the last post, How much longer do we have to wait until the drop spindle is released? Put me down for one now. Also a question though, about your pbr caliper brackets. With these new brackets could a 13 inch cobra rotor be used with the 4 piston cobra calipers?

any new progress???
What is the material it is cast from? any treatments either?
Do you have a picture of the BACK of the spindle.. especially the middle area around the brake mounting area?
I am already working on the second iteration prototype. I'll publish pics as appropriate. If you have something in mind, let me know.
I am hoping that I could get a steering arm mod by cutting off the stock steering arm, and bolting one onto the lower brake mounting holes on the back side. For the arm I would try to get one machined from 3/4" plate or something similiar. Then I would have the area around the back side of the two holes machined flat to form 2 mating surfaces for the arm.
For this to work there would need to be a good amount of steel joining the lower holes to the main spindle body.
This was just an idea I had looking at the picture you posted. It looked like the steering arm is in line with those holes.
This is just me thinking out loud. Now that I think about it, I might need a third hole to prevent moment on the attaching fasteners. Hrm.... should be doable.
I've considered making the steering arm removable. I may revisit the idea.
BTW, I have limited ability to answer email right now. I'm in Vegas and have to go to the Krispy Kreme downstairs from my Hotel to get an Internet connection .
SEMA starts Tuesday. I actually come here for AAPEX, the OEM parts oriented show that runs at the same time. I go to SEMA to see the restoration section and the "Overhaulin" production.Dennis,
I have a measurement question - how many Krispy Kremes can you fit on the steering arm without inducing stress cracks on the donut glaze?:SNSign:
Have fun in Vegas - is it SEMA already??
