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

:D :D

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 :cool:

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.

Big Vern 14th February 2010 11:29 PM

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
