[TR] TR Handbrake Q

[John Gillis]

Hi all, quick one, after having problems getting my H/brake operating
properly
on the TR, I stripped out the guts in situ, I chose this route due to the
difficulty I had getting at the large pivot nut when installing in the first
instance.
I noticed an instruction in the WSM that said the ratchet must be left loose
on
the attachment plate during installation, it does not say if, once in
position
inside the lever that it should be tightened, I have choose not to, and have
a
nyloc nut barely nipped up to the bolt holding it to the plate, I do have a
H/brake that operates very well now. Is this correct?
