Hi Folks:
I've run into a strange rear end in my 66SV.
Anyone have axles that seem to be an inch too long?
I have 4 sets of brake drums, but when seated on the axle flange, 3/4 of an
inch of the brake shoes are still exposed.
(almost an inch and a quarter from the edge of the backing plate to the edge
of the drum)
have had this car stored for 12 years, the previous owner was driving it this
way.
finally got around to putting it back to road worthiness when i discovered
this problem. hence digging out 3 more sets of drums
Were any "deeper" drums ever produced?
Are they available if they do exist?
Just 1 more note: this appears to be the original rear end,
