front brake pictures?

Won't run? Engine, cooling system, fuel pump, carb, clutch, tranny, brakes, etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Engine & Mechanical' category are here.

front brake pictures?

Post by GARYSCC »

I finished cleaning the cylinders and pistons for the front brakes. Which side does the rubber seal lip face? Im thinking the wide sided flare faces toward outside of cylinder but not sure. Also is there a picture available of the front brakes withe the springs and shoes installed? My pics got lost when my cell phone crashed.

Thank you all for the great pictures! Much appreciated. I've been focused on the e-brake but I expect to do the front brakes the next few weeks.
