just put new rear wheel cylinders on a BT7. ordered the TRW ones which cost
about 4 times as much as the cheaper ones.
cylinders would not fit into the slots. were about 50 thousands too thick.
called the supplier and they said the notes on
their computer stated "some grinding and filing necessary". for real? anyway,
i did that and must not have got one of them
correct because it was not releasing fully after brake application and made a
grinding noise. had hub off a few times before
i figured out the problem. oiled slot and plates and moved the cylinder back
and forth until it slid easily and now no
hangups.
