Step 28
Open bag 5
All the parts from bag 5
We first are going to make six brake pads
form these parts.
Watch the red marked slots.
They should correspond with the to be placed brake lining.
The brake linings are pre glued so remove the
cover sheet.
The kit comes with nice non thread bolts for
the portion the brake pads are moving on.
This should be standard on every car.
Take a brake lining and slide two bolts from
the bottom through.
Now fit a steel brake plate and press it
firmly in place.
Make four of those single brake pads.
Perform the same steps as above for the
single one brake pads but place an extra brake lining on the steel brake
plate as the picture shows.
Make two of them
Free the holes from brake lining with a 3 mm
drill bit or reamer.
These are the brake pads we are going to use.
Take one of the bolts.
Place a single sided brake pad.
Place a small brake return spring.
Place a double sided brake pad.
Place a small brake return spring.
Place a single sided brake pad.
Note: As the brake disks are very thin the break springs can better not
be installed.
Fit the brake pads and bolt on the upper
center differentia holder using a 5.5 mm wrench.
Make the bolt flush with the end of the upper center differential holder
as the green mark shows.
Watch the red marked spot for the ball bearing edge.
Now perform the same steps for the other
bolt.
Make two of them.
Take lower center differential holder and
place the differential poles fully through
Now fit at the bottom of the lower center
differential holder a brake disk guide at the red marked spot.
Watch the green spot for correct mounting of the ball bearing of the
center differential.
Nice the car comes
with a two piece center differential, pre glued brake lining and the brake
pad return springs.
