Reinhart, The felt pad is a source of lubrication for the brake shoe steady
posts where it rubes the brake shoe vertical web so it doesn't squeak when the
brakes a applied and released. Use a heavy machine oil or grease that will
wick on to the brake shoe vertical web were it rubes.

Subject: [Healeys] 100 parts
When working on the rear brakes of my 100 I found the bump stop boxes on both
sides torn where the rubber buffer from the suspension may touch. I found
806-180 as the part-number in the Moss catalogue but did not find the original
part number in my old Austin-Healey parts list. Anyone knows the Austin-Healey
number? Is the quality of these from the different suppliers more or less the
same? Or should I rather have a small piece of a panel welded on the remaining
that do not look too bad.
Â
Inside the brake drum there are steady posts with felt bushes. One of these is
missing. What is the purpose of these? Should I replace the missing or all of
them?
Â
Thank you in advance,
Reinhart
