Best laid plans….
This morning I was going to fit new front brake shoes nearside & offside
Started with nearside , drum very deeply scored,
Trailing brake cylinder badly corroded and seized.
So forget that
Onto offside front, drum the same , tram lines haha
Cylinders corroded.
Forget that.
So I have started a shopping list, going to replace drums and all 4 cylinders , bleed nipples and snail cam adjusters.
Not going to use Britpart haha
