Wow… 
I can't look at those pictures without hearing the sounds it must have made. Thanks for the pics.

Sad pictures, but it does reinforce the statement:
"A good mechanic isn't expensive, he's priceless."

Just want you to know I'm working on the brake linkage mod. Still have to make a bracket but I'll post some pics of the unfinished mod tonight for comments. Going is slow bcuz there is a lot on my plate right now.

Are we separating the steering clutch from the brake?

No. They will still operate from the same control arm, but the take-up rate for the brake will be much quicker which will allow the band to be fully relaxed in it's adjusted position, eliminates the need to pre load the arm, and also eliminates the slotted link (which was grossly inadequate IMHO). I could have accomplished the same geometry with rods and bellcranks but this seemed the more expedient method.
All of those pics are taken on the left side. I chose the left side to experiment with because it was easier to access, little hose interferences.
I might add that this system can be adopted to the pendulum pedals as well.
