Dumb brake bias question for you all. On the Spitfire I got a couple of years
ago there is a dual master cylinder with an adjustable  brake bias rod. Sleeve
on the pedal arm with rod going through the sleeve attached to the rod of each
m-cylinder. Might be partially home built. I happen to be looking down at the
top of it yesterday and noticed it was all the way over to one side. Hmmmm,
did not recall seeing this before. I reached down and grabbed it and noticed
there is a good inch of travel where you can push the adjustment rod back and
forth through the sleeve on the end of the brake pedal.  The cylinder rods are
fixed to the cross rod but the whole sub-assembly can be moved cross car
thought the sleeve. Hope this description makes some sense. I'm thinking there
are some spacers missing. Before I make something up t take out this slop I
thought I would ask the experts if there is any reason it should be like
this.
