Bolt-On Brake Crossover
Bolt-On Brake Crossover
Add a brake crossover tube to your hard-tailed Shovelhead or Early Evo frame with this bolt-on assembly. Designed for hardtail frames using Knucklehead/Panhead-style cast axle plates, it lets you run a mechanical rear drum brake instead of a hydraulic “juice” drum or disc brake.
Keep your rear brake mechanical: no brake fluid to leak from a wheel cylinder onto your brake shoes, and no brakes to bleed.
Made in Utah. Retains the stock exhaust pipe mounting position used on Panhead and Knucklehead frames and includes a grease zerk fitting.
Fitment and installation: Fits hard-tailed Shovelhead and early Evo frames with Knucklehead/Panhead-style cast axle plates. Some welding is required to attach the frame mounting tab. Due to the physical constraints, you will need to grind a small relief into the transmission plate and the stock left-side brake arm to provide clearance.
Additional parts required (sold separately): Use one of the following setups:
- Stock setup: A stock Harley-Davidson 1936–1957 crossover shaft, brake pedal, and associated linkages.
- Pangea setup: A 1936–1957 crossover shaft, rear brake rod and clevis, our Phong brake pedal, and our Brake Crossover gear set.
