[QUOTE="flaboy?, post: 439760, member: 5749"] Hey cfpinz, I still have that old gearbox I took off of the hay mower. It's pretty dang heavy. You can bolt a chain to it and kick it out to use for an emergency brake. Here's one for you guys. 56 Ford pickup. I coming to a red light where two four lanes cross. Hit the brakes and the pedal goes to the floor. Pull the e-brake and cable snaps. I make the turn through a Krispy Kreme parking lot (smelled good too) doing about 45. Made it though without killing anyone bounced onto the cross 4 lane (thinking wow what a job). Looked in the rear-view to see a cop frantically trying to stop me. Somewhere down the street I rolled to a stop in a gas station. Cop is PO'd I didn't stop. I tell him my brakes failed and he laughed until a mechanic walked out and pointed to the wet spot under the right front tire. This was before dual chamber master cylinders. I had wide wheels and the inside of the wheel wore a hole in the flex brake line. :shock: [/QUOTE]
