S/SS Brake safety

I went off the end at Martin about 10 years ago. Frightening to say the least. My fix was to form a "top hat" from heavy sheet metal flat bar with the two outer holes matching the master cyl mounting holes and a center clearance hole for the pushrod to go through. After a mockup, I marked the exact spot for a flat washer to get welded on the rod, on the cyl side of the "top hat" with a slight amount of clearance. Simple and works.
