Hi Andy - welcome to the mad world of Blitzs. I built a Chevrolet Blitz half-track, Project Phoenix, and during the course of that build encompassed the following.

Bearings - great supplier and know what they are talking about.

Simmos Industrial Supplies
PO Box 315 Beaudesert Qld 4285
Michelle Dyson – partner (does she know her stuff)
(07) 5541-0533
32 Telemon Street
Beaudesert Qld 4285

I had the master cylinder and four slave cylinders refurbished, new brake shoes on all four drums, brake hose and lines all for about $820. Will never have to look at the brakes again. My supplier also rebuilds the brake booster and he is about the only one in the country that does it.

Bob

Thanks Bob,

i saw your conversion in the truck mag !

Thanks for the suppliers details, luckily my shoes are good so should keep cost down a bit, is this the supplier for bearings and brakes or just the bearings ?
cheers
Andy

Hi Andy - just the bearings. The brake guys are here in Adelaide.
