Well I did not get as much done today as I wanted as I was clearing out my grandads garage!

But I am happy with what I did Thumbs Up

After letting the brake cylinders soak and using a pair of grips and a hammer I was able to get them apart Very Happy

I then cleaned them all up and lightly rubbed them all down, greased them and put it all back together with some new split pins Thumbs Up

Hopefully get the chassis fully rubbed down tomorrow. I also ordered some
New shoes and springs to finish it all off underneath Thumbs Up

Thanks Ray, getting there slowly and hopefully when the box of goodies arrive on Friday I can rebuild the brakes and hubs and then we will be ready for primer. O and then she will be going under some Surgery Thumbs Up

Please have a look at the inner sealings!
The leather part is hardly to get, I guess.
The inner hub seal sometimes is dammaged at its lip or mounted upside down! Big Cry
REM: the coiled spring has to show to the bearings!

Have a nice holiday! Thumbs Up

My 30mm spacers arrived this morning and I test fitted them Thumbs Up All seems ok think i will need some washers but they look ok. These are them fitted with out the brake drums so the over lap will be a lot smaller and I will take that away with some washers Thumbs Up

Click image to enlarge


Wheels test fitted:

These will be plastidiped black next week hopefully Very Happy

I also gave the brake hubs a clean and wizz with the wire brush:

Well not much done today Sad

I got the last few remaining things unbolted and removed ready for cleaning up.

I flipped the chassis over with the tractor and have removed the axle (not done in the picture) so I can get to it all for wire brushing Thumbs Up

Click image to enlarge


Brake shoe carriers etc are looking good and I have just put some kitchen towel on the shaft to protect it while I work on the rest Very Happy

Slow progress but everything is apart now and hopefully I can get some primer on this weekend Thumbs Up

Arlo in the pics above did you just use copper grease when you out the shoe carriers back together?
