Thats sweet. I have the same CNC Brakes cutting brake set-up but with handles sticking straight forward. How is that working for you? what rear calipers are you using? Was it a pain to bleed out? I havn't installed mine yet.

 

[boz42]

pain to bleed = yes

still have not completely bled it, it will stop, but pedal is still soft. i am running d44 frt calipers

 

[mrdrinksalil]

sh*tty. Can you build enough pressure with the cutting brake to lock up the rear tire? Or does the handle bottom out when you pull it up?

 

[boz42]

the handle travel bottoms out, but it does lock up the rear brake for that side. we had my dad's f-250 dragging my truck around the shop playing w/ the cutting brake, it will hold, but it just needs more bleeding.

 

[mrdrinksalil]

cool. I'm not looking forward to the nightmare of bleeding mine out. Any pics of how you ran the rear brake lines?>

thats sweet i dont know that i want it that close but that looks awsome.

 

[boz42]

thats sweet i dont know that i want it that close but that looks awsome.

thanks, i like it close that way when u have the 5 pt harness cinched tight u can still reach it. trans is manuel vavle body so u have to shift it. it is a trail rig only.

 

[mello_yello]

ok cool, if i install one it I just want it pretty close, because i have a somewhat bad back (and I'm lazy), but think i still want a consule, i might make something like ryokens (probably not as kool lookin' though)

 

[ryoken]

Mine could be duplicated in wood very easily... It's just a box... You could always put a layer of fiberglass over the outside... or just paint it in epoxy...

 

[mello_yello]

i might, i kinda want to do a mix between yours and boz42's, like a steel frame or something i dont know. i know i want an arm rest, but i dont know how i want it all to look, i was still thinkin like some type of mount on the dash, i dont know, maybe all just send some Hundos over to you ryoken and you can make it. JK, like i have any money :HAHAHA... Oh i made myself sad:bender from futrama

 

[mello_yello]

ttt i want more
