    Outstanding Brian.

    As for me thanks for the reminder of why it is a waste of time to participate over there. I'm a 'proud' member with lots of bling on the deuce and 0 posts. But I do enjoy the riffs and rants of some of the holier than thou true rodders over yonder.

    You're gonna like your new brakes.

    So---Today 2 big boxes of parts showed up. One complete front disc brake kit with everything (except maybe flexible front brake lines). Plus one 2 pound residual check valve. ---Total damage--$736.17. (Which for a pleasant change is LESS than I was originally quoted.) I HAD TO take all the bits and peices out and look at them. (They are currently spread all over the coffee table in the living room.--Its okay---my wife understands.) Maybe tomorrow I will put the front end of the Wild Canary up on jackstands and start taking things apart and taking pictures.---(and not post about what I'm doing on the HAMB!!!)
