. As a reminder, this is the rear brake system with the stock inside emergency brake and the auxiliary outside brake. I'm working on the mechanical linkage to operate these brakes. This is the brake pedal with a lever arm welded on to the end for the linkage and a bellcrank lever that will bolt on the front of the transmission. The brake pedal and bellcrank mounted in place and the linkage rod that angles down from the brake pedal to the bellcrank under the floorboard. Cutting out frame supports for the two brake equalizing pivot brackets. The finished equalizing pivot bracket housing with bushings and grease fitting installed for the right side. The same bracket with the pivot rod and brake lever arms installed. The right pivot bracket mounted in place and working on the left bracket housing. Both equalizing pivot brackets are finished. This is the equalizing arm and clevis****embly that will attach to the bellcrank on the side of the transmission. The two equalizing brake rods running from the bellcrank equalizing arm to the lever on each pivot bracket. The brake rod on the left side from the equalizing pivot lever to the rear auxiliary brake. Also the rod running from the emergency brake lever to the rear emergency brake. And the brake rod on the right side from the equalizing pivot lever to the rear auxiliary brake. Also the rod running from the emergency brake lever to the rear emergency brake. Now it is time to start putting the body back together. Getting ready to remount the cab. Cab is bolted in place.
