Shame your 'recollection' isn't as good about the subject matter. Cool

Caterham,

I've already seen the inside of your drum and the marks from the last time you took it apart 14 months ago. This is not fresh news. Why not continue one of the last two threads you started on exactly the same subject within a month of each other?

Munch you could have spent the day doing something proactive for yourself instead! I went to the beach with my two daughters......Same trap I used to fall into. Not any more without a search.

It is indeed nice to help others.....especially when they need it....the thanks afterwards I find quite gratifying. Spending other people's money though.....that's even more gratifying I find.

Embarassed

I'm none the wiser......took thing apart and back together again.....trying to put the retaining pin / spring back on the shoe nearest the passenger side is enough to test the patience of a saint Evil or Very Mad

Anyhow all back together (didn’t really do anything other rebuild and a good dose of brake cleaner) and all really good (for the moment) ?

I suspect one of the shoes for some unexplainable reason has a habit of sometimes getting stuck and not fully returning?

Anyhow for now things seem perfect Thumbs Up

Thank you for the comments.......if they weren't helpful technically they didn't at least keep me smiling when I was getting ready to throw the town in last night with the retaining spring.

Thumbs Up

if it plays up again, you might find it easier to work on when its on the bench, just lift the engine/gbox and tbox out together then you will be able to see the drum and parts inside easily with plenty of space to work in. Cheers
