The (over)torque master strikes back

Preface: Sparky says there is tight. too tight, and Mike tight.....

I was bleeding my front brakes earlier because my CJ was pulling a little to the left....to make a long story short I decided to install some of the fancy check valve bleeders, and as I was tightening it after bleeding, the head of the bleeder valve broke off.

On a positive note, I have been wanting to do an 11" brake swap on the front. If I am going to pull everything off down to the backing plate, I refuse to stay with the 10".

So, without any decent bone yards around here, I would appreciate any leads as to where to find some intermediate CJ (or waggie, or DJ, etc..) 11" drums.

 

Mike: Look in the "Wanted to Buy" section in Billy's post. Seems that there is a lot of them around.

 

sorry to hear about it MOP, thats one thing i can never be told i do. i always leave the nut or bolt loose somehow.

 

At least you have the right attitude for it. You know, life feeds you lemons...

Hope the conversion goes well

 

I even have a spare set of knuckles laying in the garage to do a knuckle stud conversion while I am there. It was meant to be.
