On their way home from Branson, Betty and Bill brought my brake parts. :)
Here I am unboxing them and figuring out what's what.

Betty and Bill were great, and their little dog is adorable. They even
brought me one of those "Life is More Than MPG" bumper stickers that will
proudly adorn my GMC.

I need to get down there and work on her Onan, and figure out why it's not
making power. I think I'll start a new thread for that so I can collect
what y'all were able to figure out up there in Branson. Going down to their
place to work their Onan will give me an excuse to take my wife to the
coast.

JimK, this looks like just the parts that I need. I'll get with my new
mobile mechanic about getting the old races knocked out and the new ones
put in, and then get the rear brakes all back together. Once that's done
and the wheels are put back on, she'll be about ready to roll.

Robin,
I didn't see any seals! Did you get new seals or are you going to use the
old ones?

Oh, there's seals in there. I briefly mentioned them, but didn't make a big
deal out of them since I actually knew what they were, unlike the confusion
with the bearings and races. :)
