Girling Brake adjustment

[algot1901]

Does anyone have a picture of the front brake cross rod lever assy, that connects the brake balance lever to the front brakes I am trying to figure out this parallel (in line) to the brake rod and the position of the bracket where the rod attaches to the assembly

Sorry I don't have an actual answer for you but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out. The "balance lever" or equalizer is just a little "bell crank" sort that mounts on the front axle (IIRC) with a rod to each wheel. The single pulling point is for a rod that goes back the the pedal linkages. There is only one way it can all be connected in a pull-pull configuration that will work with pedal action to pull the actuators at the backing plates. Wish I could be more specific but it has been 45 or so years since I took all that off. Interesting side note. Our shop Model A has no equalizers at all. The linkages for every wheel are adjusted individually. It also has a complete separate set of shoes for the rear only emergency brake.
