Hang on...This is ASH we ae talking about...


Knowing Ash, i,m sure everything will be tight, checked twice then checked a third time & maybe ask someone to check it all again.

having followed Ash,s build through CKC & of course on this forum i,m sure the IVA will be a breeze for his car

cheers

Hmm!!! I've had duff M/Cs from Brakes international as well before now... Mine had obviously been sitting on a shelf somewhere for some time and the seal blew on the first pump, and an MX-5 rear caliper which failed a week after I fitted it. I've also had a lot of gear off them over the years that's been fine and there prices are usually better than anywhere else.
Still very frustrating though.
Had you not solved it i was going to suggest you checked the rear shoe clearance. Remember self adjusting rear brakes means you have to adjust them yourself

At least you've got it sorted

hi Vern did you have any problems sending stuff back to them? the self adjusters on my rear drums are spot on. Dave and i let them off several times and every time they adjusted them self's back up without fail.

just glad they are ok now. I have had quite a bit of stuff off brakes int in the past and never had a problem. wonder what they will be like sending it back now as i got it back in November.

Never had any problems with returns. Phone them first thing tomorrow and explain what's happened and they should get it sorted pretty quick.
They've always been helpful when I ve had problems
