I'm sure it's the Zip Ties & the "Race Red" Tape.

Either way, glad it's working, should be pretty clean once you get some mounting tabs made.

Debated. Rear brakes went out on the way home from Blessing of the Jeeps. Got a fresh disc brake setup on my D44, but it has a bad pinion bearing. So do a 100% drum brake job on the 8.25, or carrier and pinion bearings on the D44....
