I'm going bald waiting for the unknown. Then after that I'm waiting some more.

I am finally getting back into working on it after a horrible winter and spending my time moving.
-
looks so good! Im hoping you replaced all the parkbrake stuff while you were in there.
Some butt nugget before me tore absolutely all of it out so I have nothing. I am trying to think of a way to link my handbrake up to a cylinder to have a hydraulic parking brake.

It wouldn't be too difficult to put a hydraulic parking brake in. Wilwood makes a hydraulic hand brake kit that splices into your rear line so the brakes work normally until you pull the handbrake and it locks on the disc.

Carry blocks...

I haven't had a parking brake since I bought my car and have only put it in gear without issue. Fixing my parking brake is on my to-do list somewhere...
I always put the car in gear and never had an issue with it moving. That's not goo on the trans though. We all have to remember though, I can air out and use my frame rails as my brake=)
I vote this!

Problem is, pressure will bleed off.
Eventually.
Johns knife-dro has locks on it
I asked him if he looses pressure when he parks. He says he does not.
Discuss
The lock is the little blue thing behind the handle
-
Johns hand will bleed off
Tell that boy to log pressure vs. time, then come back and tell me what a bish I am.
...bish
jk, but with all the bolts and knobs earl has polished, would he really want to risk losing his car while parked on the streets of san francisco? Especially if its on a hill that requires holding the foot brake while applying a heavy dose of hand brake.
