This be the Front
New brake shoes on and 56 ford 1/2 ton wheel cylinder.  Had to drill new holes for it.
56 ford 3/4 ton backing plate with wheel cylinder holes filled in.
48 Ford Spindles with steering arms heated and bent
backing plates complete with brakes on
Backing plate with spindle attached
48 Ford Hub drilled for 5 on 5 bolt pattern to be attached to buick drum.  Hub also turned in lathe to fit into Buick Drum.
The machine shop made spacers for me to put behind the inner race to keep the brake shoes from rubbing.
This is after the buick drum returned from the machine shop.  As you can see it had to be turned around the outer edge to accomodate the backing plates and brake shoes.
Here is a pic of the rim and hubcap.   I might see how they look black.. Hmmm
Here is a crappy photo of the front.
Got the friction shock mounted and reformed a triumph shock link to use.
