NOW, THIS IS WELL HANDY HARRY!
Apr 2nd
You’re fitting new brake pads, but you’re keeping the discs because they’re still well within the manufacturer’s specification for thickness. However, the edge of the discs will be corroded, with a pronounced lip – and this lip can damage the new pads or even stop them fitting correctly. Laser Tools has the answer in the form of their new brake disc lip removal tool (part number 7839).
Hand-operated, it will quickly remove the corrosion from the edge and smoothly cut back the lip on the face of the disc. Bolt-on the handle and position the cutting edge of the tool against More >

A GOOD STEER FROM SUMMIT RACING
Apr 2nd
Building a steering system for cars with little under-bonnet space can be an exercise in frustration. You’ve got to work it around things like firewalls, headers, and frame rails that often forces you to resort to weird steering angles with multiple U-joints and support bearings.
The Flaming River VDOG™ steering box eliminates a lot of those hassles. The gear-driven box has 3/4-36 splined output shafts that sit 90 degrees to each other, providing maximum clearance in spaces where more traditional U-joint angles won’t work.
The output shaft to your steering box or rack and pinion rides in an articulating ball – you More >
