Default Re: Brake cross shaft lever positions

FWIW:

However, in my case with a 1930 Town sedan, if you have installed a 3:27 differential with the "add on" speedometer modifier attachment sold by Bert's, the centered curve in the brake cross shaft can slightly hit this extended speedometer attachment.

Hence, in my case, the brake cross shaft arms will have to be positioned just a couple of degrees off of 90 degrees, & you may have to custom fabricate a metal "stop" to keep the brake cross shaft from hitting & shearing off this extended 3:27 metal speedometer attachment.

Just one experience to share with converting to a higher speed 3:27 differential which actually helps a lot to reduce rpm's & engine noise while out on the highway.
