I've seen an ad for a disk brake like emergency brake that bolts to the
U-joint -- only $119.00. It looks easy to hook up, relativity
in-expensive -- I was thinking about getting one of these to hook up. I
think I saw this in Street Rodder. Let me know if you're interested and
I'll see if I can dig up the advertisement, company and phone number.
