I am restoring my dad's hot rod, which he hand built from a 1940 Ford back in 1954/55. Speedway Motors has been invaluable with their expertise, parts and service. I highly recommend them.

I ended up putting this on the front of my 46 when I decided to install a 9" rear and use the stock rear drums that came on the 9". No issues at all going on the front without the emergency brake assemblies

Just to clarify, I previously asked about usuing the stock the grease shield, sheet metal piece that surrounds the hub. The answer said grease SEAL. Is the SHIELD used? It is hard to tell from the picture if there is enough room for the bar between the shoes, that is used for the emergency brake, has roomif the shield is in place.
