Re: 57 Panel "FAKMLC" build

looking really nice! you do plan to put the axle on top of the springs, right? I ask because it looks like your axle is upside down in the pictures, the brakes wont bleed that way and the oil in the rear might not lubricate the pinion correctly and the vent will be a drain.

if you buy a universal pedal like in your ebay link, remember that it wont come with any provision for a brake switch. you will also need to reinforce it with brackets to the dash, the sheet firewall will flex a lot without the tie in to the dash and dash brace. the 82-93 s10 pedal assembly is a great choice, has provisions for a brake switch already and has the correct pin to catch the yoke on a hydroboost (but you may still need to shorten the hydroboost shaft) and is easy to tie to the dash and dash brace.

keep it up!
