Steves_TR6 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Reassembling the rear brakes on my TR6, to the lovely painted backplates supplied by Conrad :-), I find I'm missing a wedge. This is the wedge shaped part from the brake shoe shoe adjuster. Does anyone have one lying about perhaps from a broken adjuster that they would let me have? I will otherwise buy a new adjuster and steal one of the wedges out of it, as I would prefer to keep the old adjusters which I believe to be of better quality. Thanks in advance Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Steves_TR6 Posted May 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Thanks for the reply Alan. It's not the fitting kit that I've lost, I have two of those!, it's the angles 'piston' that pushes out of the handbrake adjuster to bear on the brake shoe. Moss list them, although with ' call for price' so is suspect they don't have stock. Might just buy a complete new adjuster and nick a piston. Unless anyone has a used one?.

Andrew Smith Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Steve, I may have a brake adjuster still fitted to an old backplate, I'll have a hunt later today and let you know and if I do you're welcome to it. Cheers Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
