Title: Nobel brake arm springs
Post by: Bob Purton on February 26, 2014, 06:23:57 pm

Just fitted these, what little swine's they are to fit! I hope I have them on correctly, can anyone confirm please?

Thanks Steven. I found it impossible to fit them any other way so it must be right.
On another Nobel matter, remember we both laughed at how one of your front brake cables was attached to a track rod? It seemed a daft thing to do. Well after much experimentation trying to prevent the cable from rubbing on the inside edge of the tyre when the wheel was on full lock, I have found that a tie strap holding the cable to the rod is the only way of doing this. Even the support bracket that holds the cable up at centre chassis is not enough to prevent the cable making contact. The dangers of jumping to a conclusion.

If you want me to I could check on the Nobel here for you, because the car is almost complacently original, I think ;D ;D

If you wouldn't mind Dodger but I wouldn't mind betting they dropped off years ago and were never replace.  Have a look please. . Are you on school holidays?
I recon all the cars in the Hammond collection are "complacent" don't you?
