[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 37479, member: 60"] I am struggeling with this turn the whole wheel in a lathe bit (I am talking Vincent alloy brake plates here) I have my race linings bonded on by safetek UK I then turn them to fit the drum (with 2 pieces if hacksaw in the lever pivot) I then check I have a small clearance twixt bearing tube and plate center(always have) then simply assemble wheel pull brake hard on and do up axel bolt tight if the excentricity of the drum brake surface on the alloy hub is within the confines of plate hole and bearing tube clearance (and if not you have big troubles) its [U]got to be [/U]concentric at that point and since the brake plate does not rotate where is the problem?
