[QUOTE="SammoHung, post: 182191, member: 1425"] [b]is there a mod to fix this problem???[/b] Hi K10, How long ago was it since you did your cleanup?.... I'm just wondering wether I should get the hammer out too? also just had a thought (oh dear..here we go again...lol): ...from what I recall; new shoes dont seem to have a great deal of lining thickness to begin with (may be 3mm?) Now, if I understand correctly, the adjusters are supposed to take up cable slack as the shoes ware down?....anyone? Surely if this IS the case 3mm (ish) MAXIMUM could never equate to 60 degrees (ish) handbrake lever variation (2 through 8 clicks plus....) Does this sugest that the drum adjusters are infact "slipping" in the opposite direction over time? Assuming this is the case...(anyone?)...would there be an easy mod to HARD-FIX the drum adjusters once set...and just use the cable adjuster if at all necessary....surely this would improve this awefull problem massively.??? ...or have I just got my knickers in a twist..again.....lol [/QUOTE]
