The cross or "plus sign" that along with the pins to hold the pads in. I believe the fronts are slightly larger than the rears.

If you have any of the cotter pins used on the back brakes I could use 1 of those too.

Can't seem to find that part. can I just get an "R"clip and fold it over?

If you are adding brakes then you must be getting close! I am sure someone has one laying around but Eric at PMB may be your quickest source or maybe Bruce Stone.

It has GO and it has to STOP. I would say I am getting closer. Shooting for some progress this holiday weekend for sure.

It won't be pretty, but all I really need is brakes, axles and wheels. I don't need doors, hoods and trunk lids or lights to drive in my culdesac!

That first drive feels good even if you are a few parts short of being finished. I know how excited I was on the first drive with my new engine and I was certainly a few parts short. After doing yours twice, I think a drink and a toast to you from all will be required.

Let me look in the morning, I can probably fix up up.

Glad you made it to phase V
