excalibur02 : 1992 Accord LX (3)

[excalibur02]

Today in North NJ it was 50 degrees outside So I got down and dirty to install my rear disc on this car.

pic of before I started work




A pic of the front since I am also doing ROH and vtec rotors/calipers soon











Cars on all jack stands since the ebrake cables need to be installed.




Here is the work area and the drums off.

[excalibur02]

I put the hub and wheel on to make like the car is driveable
If not I get in trouble with my town lol




Here I just put the jack stands all together since the people on the street wont see this side.




I am not done with the project. I am waiting on my SS brake lines but everything else will be put on when it gets nice out again.

I dont have my coupe running either but I am using Juan aka tonymontana's ride since he is out of state.

That was pretty quick for being done all in one day with hand tools! mines took like 12hrs total since i couldn't seperate the rear knuckles from the lower control arms.

So what kind of rear rotors you going with ?

When the paterson boys came to get my rear disc out of the parts car we got everything out in like 40mins.
LOL Thats because we were using the Snap-On electric gun.

But remember that shit wasnt working for us that one time?

HAHA This is something i would never attempt by myself with just hand tools.
I needz a lift, latex gloves and power toolz in my life

A+ job Ricio!

PowerSlot Rotors and hawk HPS Pads for all 4 corners.. All that should be a nice setup

Hand tools or bust!

Still not done just gunna wait for the SS lines put another coat of red paint on the rear calipers and brackets.

You better get those rear knuckles separated so I can give you the ex rear crossmember lol

Ha that shit was not even working to loosen the lower strut bolt...

I have never worked on this car with a lift. All hand tools lol

I got my latex gloves then my mechanic gloves on top. But when it comes to tight spots I get my hands dirty lol.

keep up the good work. i absolutly love the color.

Thanks man! When the car is under the sun and recently waxed, then the color is amazing!

Spoiled! And fortunate.

Keep the progress coming Mar.

I will update the thread with pics as soon as I work on it or get more parts!

Maury!

HAND TOOLS FOR LIFE! well for me lol

love the new pics mauri, its interesting to see a rear wheel bolted on with no rotor behind it... reminds me of the times in the past working on cbs at your house...

juans car looks pretty good, probably a cool DD to have. when you plan to get this put back together? the caliper picture you sent me looks really good

maury

I miss it so much.

[excalibur02]

got some new pictures and updates from doing the rest of the rear disc conversion.


here is my progress rear sway bar. Its really hard to drill when I am lying down on the floor. Gunna do the drilling of the rear crossmember when its on the lift for the alignment.




here is the rear pass side rear hub and extended arp studs installed braking pressure is provided with the Techna-fit SS brake lines.




here is the rear driver side rear hub with the same stuff added.




here is the work station with some tools and parts




here some more parts






here is the rear pass side rear disc complete







The driver side rear disc, I did not take pictures of nor did I take pictures of installing the 40/40 Prop Valve.

I still need to put the Russel Speed Bleeders on and pin locks for the ebrake to the caliper.

ROH conversion coming up next time I have time and its nice out.
