At this point anything faster than the granny gear I've been stuck in would be an improvement smallfoot.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing about you when I just saw your response to my post. Yeah, Buddy woke me up to go outside, so while I'm up, I thought I'd catch up some reading.

Well things didn't go exactly as planned this evening.(Do they ever ?).
The help came but he neglected to bring the needed parts with him so nothing was accomplished. Just a case of miscommunications. [S
I will have the parts in hand tomorrow and will finish putting together the front brakes as well as installing the front drums with freshly packed bearings and new seals.
That's it for tonight....

Ah! The little drawbacks of working solo! We all have them. Keep focused and everything will work out. All them shiny parts are looking good and I hope everything is nice and tight and works as it should when you get to that "cruise" part!

I hope so soltz. Now that I have the brake shoes put back in the right way.
Went back out last night to finish buttoning up the other side and realized that I had the brake shoes on backwards.
The short shoe should be on the backside of the drum.I have got to admit to being frustrated about this. Lately things that I have been doing for 40 years I am now screwing up.
Well they are right now.
Thanks for visiting.....

I know the feeling ...
Check, check, and triple check! We're not as sharp as we used to be, so being extra careful is a good thing. It takes a lot less time to make sure things are right than to deal with the aftermath when they are wrong.
