got a used hanebrink swinger with a 60 hub yesterday but the guy i bought it from was not using rear brakes... it does not have the rod that ataches to the swinger and goes to the brake drum that holds the drum from spinning.. i could weld a tab like the 60's and thye hondas.. what should i do

Yeah, figure out where you'll need the tab and weld it in there, I got a friend that had to do the same thing, just make sure an accomplished welder is doing the work for you.

Keep in mind you might need to have it re heat treated after welding on it.

would making a rod be easier and better?

Yes if it has the little tab at the front for the stop rod. All you need to do is get some thin wall steel tubing cut it to length smash the ends flat in a vice and drill the mounting holes.

then drill a little hole in the brake hub to attach the rod?

There should already be one? or is it a 60 brake?

its a 60 brake.... what can i do? can i buy a 110 brake hub and put it on the 60 wheel?

 

[badmatt828]

The 110 hub is a lot bigger so it won't work on a 60 hub.

Huh I dont know it seems like having the tab welded on the back seems like the only fix. But be aware that is big balls

 

[smoothoperatorsfreestyle]

big balls? lol what u mean

 

[yotachump]

weld a little piece of square rod for the brake panel to slide into
