    How do we donate to the site?

     

    It's in the pull down menu, as shown in the screen capture I attached below (click on it).

     

    Not sure but you may not see the Donate tab if using a Mobile Phone to view the forum...

    Wilwood emergency/parking brake brackets

    Gents...

     

    I too fitted my kit this week (I still had the prototype kit fitted !). As you know, I sandblasted, then painted mine brackets. When i was fitting them, I had done everything and was at the stage of bolting the calipers up to the bracket. I was surprised when the 2 bolts for the main caliper got VERY tight, and to the point where they would tighten no more without extra leverage.. So..I removed the rotor, and ran a tap through the holes....it was the paint !.....i have never experienced this before, and after i ran the tap through, the bolts went in as they should !.

     

    So.....this is just a heads-up for all you guys getting your brackets powder coated (or even painted) ....make sure you at least try threading your bolts all the way through EACH hole BEFORE you fit the brackets up. Its a little awkward re-tapping them once the bracket is bolted up !

     

    Cheers

     

    Thanks for the heads up Warren!. I will be sure to check mine out before install...

    Any one know source?  Whitehead Performance has had my 300ZX Turbo driveshaft for 6 months. Repeated attempts  to get status have failed.  Take care, beware.

     

    Sorry, this makes no sense to me.....

    OEM Light cover crack repair

    I worked with laminated glass, plate glass / mirror and plastics for 30yrs until I became a disabled Vet.  My experience tought me how to stop a 'run' in glass and lexan / plexi glass by drilling a tiny hole at the very end of the 'run', crack, so that when it continues to run, it will have to stop at the tiny drilled hole. Use the smallest drill bit you can find.

     

    If you'd rather not test yourself by drilling a hole, you can hope it does not "run" any farther by just barely tightening that fastener where it's cracked putting least amount of pressure on that area. 

     

     

    EDIT:

    Sorry for repeating what you said above Svt40.
