Brake fluid leakage or dampness could be the cause if it is a recurring affair, but often one rear wheel will lock slightly earlier than the other, as well due to road conditions (bumps, grit etc.).

Try Austin Princess/Ambassador (wedge). Often on ebay.co.uk. Might be worth investigating whether they fit. They are often used to modify/improve front brake systems, e.g. Ford Escort, DAF, Spridget,

Agreed. Probably closer to 3/16" or even 1/8". The holes for the fuel line clips for a 100 are about 1/4" bs -- ** Bob Spidell San Jose, CA bspidell@comcast.net ** ___________________________________
