[QUOTE="Matty, post: 125998, member: 1339"] That broken shoe is pretty impressive, how does that happen - unless the shoe has been made of some very inferior material. The forces required to break through the wide flange must be very great unless there is a crack or flaw in the casting - is the shoe bent (flattened) as the lining is pressed on ? My worn pivot idea is that the cam pushes on the end of the shoe and sort of jams it into the drum at the other end - afraid the theory defeats any skills I might have had in my youth with 3 dimensional geometry and vector algebra to do any mathematical analysis of the idea !!!

The Series 'A' Rapide was known as the '********' Nightmare?
