Brakes are done. All bled out and ready to go. Pedal was low so took a quick look at the rear adjustment. Had to adjust them quite a bit and the pedal came up nicely. I will take it for a test drive tomorrow after getting a manual choke in it.

\n\n\nPssshhh.. Concrete.... I been playin in the cold mud all morning laying on cardboard and styrofoam messing with exhaust and evaluating my holding tank mess on 270. LOL.. tip: Run to the nearest home improvement store and pick up a sheet of that pink 1 inch foam. Cut in in half (4x4). You now have a comfy place to lie down under the vehicle or to sit on.\n\nThanks for the front brake pics and info! PO replaced my fronts, but the flex lines look baaaaaaad..KB2CRK wrote:Done except for bleeding the brakes. Temp is dropping and the cold concrete was getting to me. I will let it gravity bleed tomorrow while I replace the generator bracket and install the manual choke. Final bleed will be when my wife gets home tomorrow evening.
