Fitted the master cylinder, proportioning valve and new pipes all round today. Took it out and did a few miles to bed the pads in. Need to do a few more miles before I can make a judgement but they were getting better each time I braked.
The Cragers just catch the calipers so I had to fit washers on the studs. I'll have to make a pair of 3mm wheel spacers.

Cheers Kev bought them. At that price it wasn't worth the effort making them.

Poor quality vice Wil. Get in touch with the people you bought it from. Someone needs to clamp down on that.

I always use a jack on its side in a door frame to press bearings and pulleys.

Use lots of wood on the frame to protect the frame though because a smack on the head from the wife can be painfull.

I forget about stud partitions because I have never lived in a house with one!
