Greetings!

Slow (ie not much!) progress lately. Some other significant distractions to be attended to here.

On advice, did some minor rework on the master cylinder setup. Seems that the Wilwood setup needs to be spot-on to avoid leaks....changed the clamping to improve the chances of success....so soon about to start bleeding the brakes.

Here's what it looks like (not original, but my hands are tied to some extend ) ...



Cheers!
Glen

One job that didn't take too long to complete in the last couple of days is a tow lug for the front end.

It's 50mm x 6mm section mild steel, ø25mm hole, attached to the chassis with a couple of M12 bolts, so should be sufficient, yes?




Cheers,
Glen

Looking good Glen, your plumbing is very tidy, it may be an idea to check with your engineer re brake pressure switch, i believe that with 2 separate master cylinders (front and rear systems independent of each other) you need a pressure or float switch on both master cylinders.
