Two sets Wheel Cylinders that fit Kinmont Disk Brakes Ready to head to there new home
Now should I make more?

All buffed out

Designed by Joe Milan in the mid-'40's
First car I know that used them was this one, owned by Chicagoan Joe Lencki. The brakes on the Champ car were larger but used the same concept as the ones shown.

Lencki worked as a supervisor at Dodge Chicago where WWII B-29 radial engines were built, had a very inventive mind and was a self taught engineering type. At times Preston Tucker sponsored his racing exploits and Joe worked in Engineering for Preston building the prototype Tuckers. I would expect it was Joe Lencki that brought the Kinmont brakes to Tucker's attention. Oh, and it was when Dodge Chicago vacated the property on the south side of Chicago that Preston Tucker leased it for his ill-fated attempt at automobile building.

We made some replacement Wheel cylinders

Got a nifty little cover for the hole

Machine went wacko on a spacer
