i just bought the turtle one piece brake mount and cannot figure out how to mount it..how do the two brakes and springs go in?and which order?and the two pins how far do i put them in the mount? i also have it mounted to the turtle back late.cannot figure out the order it goes..:mad:
 
the pins can go in first, push them in till they are flush with the other side,lock em down with the lock screws,
you should be able to slip on the brake pad springs then the other brake pad it should just slip on on top, now watch the the pin clearance by the engine if its touching the engine mount or obstructing the mounting you can move it in some and 1-2 mm before you start to get to close to the spur

after i set the pins and put the springs on which pad do i put on first?the one with the flat side or the one with the bump?sorry for so many questions
 
one other thing, if you have the stock rear top plate, one hole the TR brake mount peg goes into will not fit, its tapered for the bolt, the TR peg has the aligning protrusion built onto end, you have to drill the plate hole to fit the TR peg guide end in, be careful not to drill into the plastic threaded bolt mount below topplate.
 
from what i read he has the Tr tranny plate installed already, he just needs to get the brake mount on, if he has the same one i do which is the tranny plate and the one piece brake mount it's not hard to get mounted,contrary to the instruction video, since i'm using a GH alloy engine mount, i did not have to modify the engine mount to fit it,
once he assembles the mount, it will be a breeze,
flat brake pad first so it sit flat against the mount the springs then the outer brake pad last it has the bump for the brake cam to ride on
 
just putting it out there cuz i didnt know what topplate he had. i didnt follow any instruction for mounting the completed piece. just sat mine on there and discovered the protrusion on the rear engine side would not fit the stock plate, and had to drill out the taper, just the taper, the outside diameter was right for protrusion to fit through.
