Postby BMH » Sat Nov 29, 2008 7:27 pm

I got my mates van in today for the hand brake cable fitting as his had siezed up and also check the shoes ect, anyway after getting the drums off the job stopped as i came accross the best bodge :? :roll: i have seen for a while,whoever he got to do the brakes previously had decided not to re file the teeth in the adjusters but to simply WELD them up solid so no chance to even re file them now, so first thing monday morning i shall be on the phone to leeds unique ford centre for the adjuster kit.
I have seen some bodges over the years but this ones a right flyer.
