I've never liked that live/dead cat way of analogising the problem. He shoulda postulated with a flea. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Don't know, Tony. Perhaps by merely speculating on it we are affecting the outcome.

I think they are in Santa Barbara? So about an hour away I guess.

There weren't any of those boots. Are you having me on?!
 
I'm back & accepting orders - actually processed a couple of orders while in Korea.....& he's not kidding about the dust boot covers - that might be part of the problem.
 
The boots are often missing. Replacements suffer the same problem as other rubber replacement bits in that they are of inferior quality compared to the originals.

I'm in the middle of restoring and rebuilding a tube axle right now. I will be assembling the brakes next week in case you need to see how they work inside. It's much easier when everything is clean and the axle is off the car!
