Yes . Thank you. Now I'm just waiting on some brake pad Springs from Third Gen.

Thank you!

So you only installed the adjusters at the top. How about on the rear brakes?

I was able to put the adjuster and wedge at the top in with no problem. It at the bottom that I don't see how to remove. I think the instructions aren't specific enough for me. Kube, how did you install the floaters on your 36?

Trying to install Ted's floaters on my 36 and on instruction #5 it says to remove the lower Wedge Anchor bolt and washer by unscrewing the nut on the backing plate. I don't seem to have this nut. It appears pressed in. What should I do?

No. I used red grease after I replaced all the zirk fittings. I didn't know about the grease that you had mentioned. Tomorrow, I'll go out and take some pictures of it's stance and post them.

My 36 Coupe has a noticeable lean to the left side. Would these be worn springs? Can they be re-arched? How tough a job would this be?

Were there any particular tools that you used? Or was it just careful pressure with your hands?

I had purchased a set of the front fender welting with stainless steel trim from Third Gen. a couple years ago. Finally trying to install it but the pre-bent pieces that go behind the headlights don't seem to be bent properly (front to back and side to side). Any suggestions on what I can do? I...
