hi chaps,
I think I must have made a school boy error when reassembling the OSR drum brake after cleaning.
I will take the drum off again to have a look, but the problem is that the handbrake function is poor, and looking at the adjuster and handbrake cable balance bar, the cable to the OSR drum appears much longer than the NSR.
I thought the brake shoes would self adjust themselves against the drum, but perhaps this hasn't happened and do I need to manually adjust the shoes close to the drum?
Thanks for your thoughts! I much prefer brake discs and calipers
