    Rear drum mag and disc mag

    Thanks…my 81 has drum brake and I bought a set of drilled mags and just realized that the rear that I bought is disc…I was going to buy a weld on hardtail but it looks like they are all geared towards the drum from what I can tell.

    Opinion on valve wear

    Starting motor unit

    I’m missing the wave washer and was wondering if there is a hardware store replacement for it…as in can I just find one that fits and go with it? You can’t seem to get any parts from anyone in my area…just fyi…do not move to Midland or Odessa TX…it’s a struggle to find anything around here...
