Have you checked the adjustment at the pedal end. I know someone who spent
over £200 having his 109 braking system replaced. He changed drums, shoes,
wheel cylinders, adjusters, rigid and flexible pipes, master cylinder and
shuttle valve, when the first thing I told him to check was the pedal
adjustment as the drums were not badly worn, and all the pipes looked new.
