Man, I love that epoxy/paint combo. How much prep did you have to do for the primer?
You may want to consider finding an Allen head plug and remove that zerk if you decide to off-road this thing.Working with the parts that I have to get this thing rolling, so It can come off the lift. Yeah.... new parts View attachment 2041658

I've seen what you do and that would drag and get broken off.
I saw you mentioned clutch in the 79 build thread.
Just talk to Georg and get a TT disc. I have ran the TT as well and it is just as good, I think I even read somewhere it uses Exedy parts.

It appears to me that the spring attaches to the BACK side of the shoes. The bump-out in the lever is for clearance of the tip of the spring. Flip your spring so it attaches from the rear and see if it will clear.Trying to figure out the emergency brake..... this truck was missing all the guts inside the drum. It appears I am missing the part labeled 7663 it’s called a automatic adjust. Also the spring that I have doesn’t appear to work in this application with the emergency brake lever so I must need it also.... my only question is do I need to get a separate adjuster also? Does anyone have a good picture of the drum brake complete? View attachment 2043513
in this picture you can see that the spring won’t go over The lever and to the shoeView attachment 2043514View attachment 2043515View attachment 2043516View attachment 2043517
