Wait, what!?!??

Yes, I tried getting them made in the USA, no luck. Then Canada, then Mexico, still I got only some curt NO answers. When I expanded my search, I got positive replies from India and China. I have seen a lot of different videos of stuff being made in what looks like India and while impressive...

OK, those pics are of the first two drums. I am waiting to actually put my hands on them to confirm fitment and function, but they look awesome in the pics. In a nutshell: Aluminum brake drum with cast iron liner, 10 x 2.5”, 5 on 4.5 bolt circle. Fits most Mopars with the 10” x 2.5”...

Just a teaser, something I have been working on for a while.

Man, that looks good. You never cease to amaze.

Yes, I am speaking of Titanium brake bleeder screws. Most of the time, when I find an aluminum brake cylinder that I can use, even if the brake fluid inlet fitting is USA Standard, they will have a metric bleeder.

I have plans to remake that exact same bracket in aluminum. I need to look over my reference photos to see if there are other brackets I can make. While not as cool as making your own brackets, I managed to save a little weight via substitution. Steel brake bleeder screw, 1.28 oz. Titanium...

Howdy from Madison County VA. Tell us about your Mopars.

No problem, I am always looking for lighter pieces and glad to share ideas.

You got me beat, mine weighs 1.86 ounces. The gods of weights and mass must love you more.

Got any pics of that aluminum pinion snubber? I was just considering making one this past weekend.

Not all fasteners need to have Titanium strength. I am using aluminum fasteners for valve cover, timing cover, oil pan, fuel pump block off, to name a few.

Sorry for the fuzzy pic. If anyone can't find this guy just let me know.

Try this guy on ebay. Tell him what size you need and he will do it. He makes these things to whatever size you need. I have purchased about 5 bolts from him (he only does the 3/8-16)

Quick question, will antiseize seal against water, like say...exhaust manifold studs? Asking for a friend.......
