33 Coupe Chassis 28        7/18/03

Here we are with both brackets welded in place. Notice the two old brackets on the top of the rear-end tube. The link assembly fits great, like if I planned it.
 

 

 

Welding the brackets on was hard because I had to lay on my back and sideways. Notice the foot pedal up against the jack-stand for support. I did one side like this and it worked fine. But when it came to the other side, I couldn't use the same setup so I just put the foot pedal on the floor and used the side of my foot to press the pedal down.....not an easy task!!
 

 

 

While I had the welder fired-up, I had two more brackets to weld. This is for the brake line fittings. The braided stainless line threads to the solid line through a fitting that attaches to this bracket. I used one of my clamps to locate the bracket and then welded it in place. 
 

 

 

This is how it looks when it's all in place. The only thing that has to be done is flair the end of the tubing to 37 degrees, add the fittings and then I can screw the tubing on.
