Lost the missing link.
I have been having an impossible time trying to get my rear brakes to settle
down and adjust correctly after a brake rebuild.
Looking closely I realized that the lower adjusting link is missing.
It's the 5/8" dia. steel cylinder (rod) it is a 15/16" long rod that has a
45 degree angle on one end and a 3/16" wide by 1/4" deep slot on the other
end.
There are 2 in the adjuster body one on top and the other on the bottom, they
are moved by the adjuster wedge.
( 0.965" long by 0.62" dia. slot is 0.18' wide and 0.26' deep. )
Part #24 on page M/5 (figure 6. Rear brake back plate.) in the Austin -
Healey series BN1 & BN2 100/4 shop manual. It's just named "Link"
.
If anyone has one that is usable I would love to make a deal.
Until then I am up on jack stands missing the early spring driving weather.
Thanks in advance,
