    what kind of front brake system do you guys with TP spindles use?
    I ditched the idea of finding some Econoline steering arms, and ordered a set of TP spindles to fit my Super Bell Econoline axle.
    now I need hubs and brakes:rolleyes:

    any info / help would be appreciated

    I'm running Wilwoods, but I have 18" wire wheels.

    When I got my used wire wheels, they came with Airheart disc brakes. The setup is old. The calipers need to be rebuilt, but everything is there. Rotors, calipers and brackets. The calipers still have the old pads in them. I didn't try to rebuild them. They are as I got them.

    In order to return the Karma that Rick showed me, when he gave me a set of chrome friction shock arms.... I will let you have them, if you pay the shipping.
