Ok, this is where the car is........ Both drums are off, clean, and new bearing races installed. All the bearings need to be packed and installed. The Passenger side has rebuilt slave cylinders and new shewz hung. Its ready for the drum. The driverside is dissasembled and in the process of being cleaned/degreased. Both brakes had the grease seal installed wrong and the axle grease had slung inside the drums. The drivers side wasn't as bad as the passenger side, but absalutely nasty! Thanx to mike60 for the parts hook up! And thanx to cal69(Chris, the one with the black '69) for helpin out tonight! It should be back together tomorrow.
