Not really - I just love checking out what's in their scrap pile. I love their currency - boxes of beer!
Good to have a spare alt and starter stashed away. I'll pull the head to bits later on. Might be able to flog that off on TM.
Three amigos banished :d enjoyed some 'back road' driving again.
Tried to adjust hand brake as it sometimes struggles to hold on hills, every time I turned the nut it just spun back or jumped back...... Took hubs off still about 5-6mm shoes and hubs have hardly any wear,
Any one had this before? X
Sounds like the cable adjuster is at the end of its thread.
You will need to back off the adjuster and remove the drums, then adjust the internal adjusters in the drums until the shoes are a close fit in the drums ( keep trial fitting the drums over the shoes until you are happy with the fit ) but not dragging.
Then refit the drums and readjust the handbrake cable till the brake pulls on ( holding on the handbrake ) at between 4 and 7 clicks of the ratchet on the lever.
