Well...two things really...

Firstly...for those that were following this thread...
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2776

I had a letter today ruling in my favour as regards my appeal for having to pay this amount ...which I am very pleased about! However, not so pleased about the fact that I now have to reclaim the money they had already started to take from me to pay them back before the appeal had even been dealt with...

Still, just goes to show, persistence pays...

Second thing... the ZT-T passed her MOT today! Still got an advisory on the hand brake though...even with new shoes in her! Think the drums are too far gone and probably the cable too far stretched... Still, t'is a result after all the work put in....

Positive we like

Yes all worth it in the end take this long distance pat on the back there you go chuffed now I bet.......look I think I see a smile.........no thats A BIG GRIN

Hi Zeb.. Can't see the brake cable stretching much, they would hold a battleship up...

I seem to recall Keith (Ellesmere) making new -longer- adjusters by drilling a hole through an M6 bolt..

Thats to replace the adjuster thats fixed to the back wheel..
...

I put new cables on, albeit aftermarket, on one car. Didn't help a lot.

I think rather than the inner stretching, the outer compresses slightly. Certainly there's a slight ruck in the plastic coating.

Another possibility is the expander having worn.
