Hi all,
Firstly, thanks for all your help in the past. This site is superb.
Having converted the front brakes to disks, I am now replacing the rear wheel cylinders on my BN6 with BJ8 wheel cylinders. Its all gone together pretty well, but I am almost out of adjustment on both rear brakes. I have the adjuster screwed so far in so its difficult to get at it, as its wound fully into the rear plate yet the drums still turn freely.
I have replaced the shoes at the same time, and they (and the cylinders) appear to be the same size as the originals.
Is it unusual to run out of adjustment? Is it possible to adjust the handbrake cable to compensate?
