Are rear hasslers and Rocky Mountain brake’s compatible?
My 22 has front hasslers but no rears. It has Rocky Mountain brakes. Before I start searching for a pair of rear hasslers, can I run Rocky Mountains and rear hasslers at the same time? From what I see, it looks like the Hassler mount would interfere with the Rocky Mountain drum.

NO. The problem is that the Hassler arm extends over the brake drum. No room for Rockies beehive or pancake.Reno Speedster wrote: ↑Sun Apr 02, 2023 1:30 amMy 22 has front hasslers but no rears.

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

I was going t mention that I was fortunate to have Hank make me a set. Then when someone else was looking for a pair, I decided to give mine up and Hank was happy not to have to make another pair. I regret having done that. Anyway some pictures of the perch mad for large drum. They are not cast!Reno Speedster wrote: ↑Sun Apr 02, 2023 11:02 amAs a mater of fact, I do have a machine shop in my home, but my chores are definitely not done!
