Hi Men,
Serious question.=20
Has anyone on this list ever actually replaced their rear drum brake lining=
s because they were worn out?
Not rear disc brakes. Not front brakes. Only 3000. Only rear drum brake lin=
ings.=20
Not because they were oil soaked, not misaligned worn, not because of unkno=
wn pedigree - I mean just plain old worn out?
I've never, ever, seen or heard of a set of worn out rear drum brake shoes =
on a 3000.=20
Let me know if you've ever worn out a set of rear brake linings - yes or no=
.=20
Feel free to elaborate on the yes - I've never seen or heard of any...
I'll reveal the method to my madness soon - but now, I'm collecting data - =
I don't think anyone has ever replaced rear drum brake linings on a Healey =
3000 due to actually wearing them out!
Best
Chris=20
