Hi Goblin,
I came across your TPR Toe Brake Mod and I am in the process of rounding up the parts needed for this project. I already have the aluminum bracket which will be fabricated to connect to the Toe brake via the 7 screws etc. I am just at a loss on the size and name of the actual Ball joints you used. Would it be possible for you to post on this thread a list of the parts you used for this mod? You are one of the few folks I have seen, who have done this mod so your information is helpful to not only me, but the others that would like to take this mod on themselves.
Also you mentioned:
"Made some other modifications.
I have swapped the plastic rod end bearings with metal ones. They are now held in place by M5 screws and brass bushings. The screw and nut squeeze the bushings towards the ball in the rod end, keeping it snug.
I also swapped the ball joint on the toe brake mod I did earlier. It had a small gap that caused a clicking noise when applying brakes. These rod ends are tighter and the entire rudder pedal and toe brake assembly is now completely free from any play in the mechanism."
Would love your shopping list so I can go hunt down these parts!
Thanks Goblin!
