Older Airstream hydraulic brake to electric brake conversion
New to forum but not new to Airstreams. Thinking about buying a pre 60s airstream that still has the old hydraulic system. I know when I had my 57 I had a taken off the axle and had a place convert it, weld etc. Can anyone recommend a place in So Cal that is competent and reliable and knows Airstreams??
thanks
