90 HANDBRAKE REBUILD

MARKMAC · Dec 3, 2020

Has anyone encountered a problem with fitting the adjuster part number STC 244, the old part has been superceded. Paddocks say its the right part. New part almost lines up but not quite. Possibly work with fitting a filling back plate. Bolt holes are just different enough to make it awkward.
Be grateful for any suggestions.

Yes, file to fit. The square ish one is probably cheaper to make.

Yeah, would be ideal solution. Unfortunately budget won’t stretch that far right now but will keep it in mind for the future.

Pattern parts often need fettling to fit to be honest

If keeping the car well worth every penny, and if you watch them they get more expensive year on year!
Mines been on for at least 5 possibly 7 years now, and apart from siliconing pads in I have done diddly squat to the handbrake.

Tbh I do not notice anymore, as I have just come to assume it is std practice, which of course it should not be.

What was wrong with the original. Usually just seize up and then are fine when freed and greased.
