I modified the brakes to use a much larger caliper but other then that Mike did the engineering and other work.. The stock Tiger suspension is scary :) Here is his site, you can give him a contact directly to see if he is still making them, http://www.toyzjunkie.com/ It’s not my design, it was done by a fellow Tiger owner Mike Hokanson (sp) and he made a few of them, not sure if he is still.

Your design? I've wanted to build one, but you already did. Have you tried it out? Are you going to build more? Thanks, jh Nice K member! Your design? I’ve wanted to build one, but you already did.

Check my website at www.gtsparkplugs.com I think it may have more details on it and the brake saga. The spindles are MustangII and rack is later model mustang. The rest is all custom made. Not much, working on the Mustang shortly and after then will get back on the Tiger. I have the build motor and a few other parts, but not much going on. Spread too thin these days...

I need to make sure the caliper is the right direction too :) Hopefully it's symetric if I have to flip the crossover tube. Given how much has been off on this project you can be sure I'll be doing more work to make it happen. Or will be pulling calipers to bleed which would not be fun... Yep just walked out will have to flip the crossover tube. Good eye! Sandy Yeah, yet one more thing to trip me up. I need to make sure the caliper is the right direction too :)

The bleed screws need to be pointed up. Just a little tip from your pal at Wilwood. Dustin Wilwood Engineering Sales/tech Rep. Ganz,
