Post subject:  drum brake adjustment

Hi
Hi all well the pink mini has struck my little one down yet again. The bearing has gone in the clutch so there goes Sunday. But that is not the topic it is we need to get some brake adjusters. AS in some new ones or after market ones.The car is dangerous at times. It has had the pads cylinders infact everything else replaced on the brakes including being pressure bled and it is the stupid adjusters that keep causing the problem.
Anyone know where we can get some asap. My Daughter has spent the evening in tears again over this car. The clutch we can fix but she is scared with the brakes not working as they should so anybody who can help a young damsel in distress by helping us get some adjusters for her please please let either me or minikook know.

Thanks all. :cry:

You need this: http://minispares.com/Product.aspx?pid=33777

You can order directly from that site (I have done so many times and they arrive in about 3-7 days) or you can call Karcraft at Silverwater and get them to send you the parts. You can also pick up from their silverwater warehouse monday to friday :D

PS. if they are the front ones you need and can't get a hold of new parts over the weekend, you are welcome to scavenge off my spare front hubs. Message me if you are desperate.

I dont think you need adjusters.....call me tommorow to get some assistance, unless the adjuster has rounded off or worn down (not normally the case)
Normally It is a Shoe to drum problem, you may have new linings but what size are the drums etc...?
The other problem could be not knowing how to adjust them properlly etc...
More than happy to help on the phone... :D
