Many thanks guys, 'preciate it!

 

bike looks good, that should be way more braking power than anyone ever needs.


yeah, don't forget about fukishima, cumbre Vieja, the retail apocalypse, chemtrailing, a brain damaged populous wrecked by vaccines, fluoride, & GMO food, the coming shemita due in September, a house of cards economy, and we don't just have people who don't care running the country, those are the lower levels in the government, we have all out psychopath communists running this show.

 

Thanks man!

I had to look a couple of those up; just like a snickers bar, no matter how you slice it, we're doomed.

To the hills wolverines

 

All the doomsday scenarios in the world but all I could think of all day while touring a class of 2nd graders around a nearby Frontier Museum (my son's field trip) was "Gads, how could Suede not be drinking, I'm already two sheets to the wind!" lol

 

Hahaha, that's too funny

 

Here's a list of the parts used. Along with these were 1ea fork rebuild kit for the right slider and new Michelin Commander 2's. Also, new rear brake disc screws, drive rotor bolts, and 10ea front wheel brake rotor screws with flexed washers.

Timken bearings from Amazon, also from Surdyke front and back wheel spacers. I plan on selling the spokes complete with the tires, maybe on Ebay.

Got the two foot PVC for nothing to make the seal driver for the slider. Sanded up the outside end about 3/4 so it fits inside the top of the slider and it worked great. Monster answered a question I had about the slider disassembly regarding spinning out the bottom screw with the impact wrench that I borrowed from my neighbor, made it all too easy.

Suede, did you change over to an 11/16" master cylinder as well?

 

Yes, sure did, same one from a 14/15 LR, right caliper also. Was tempted to use the brake line from one but the ebony series parts was calling. Those AN-3 fittings sure make things simple though.

Forgot, Lyndall Gold pads must be used on their rotors so those went on also.

I was going to have the rear disc PC (just the inner that doesn't come in contact with the pads) but at the last minute pulled it, I was thinking I would sell it along with the outgoing spoke wheel so I haven't put the Gold pads on it.

 

Suede, mind if I ask what you think the conversion ran in the end minus wheels and PC? Were you able to perform the work yourself and do you think an average person could?

 

Let me have till tomorrow to add it up for you.

Easy as pie, did it by myself in the garage. Had to have the shop mount the tires but that was it.
I didn't have my vice set up so I had to be creative with the fork tube but I can't remember how exactly I did it. I know it had something to do with lashing it to my ladder I got stored standing up but my memory sometimes is more like dreams anymore, just bits and fragments float by.
I do know I pride myself on leverage and resourcefulness, more like MacGruber than MacGuyver though
