VJ Girlock calipers
Posted: Tue May 29, 12 11:05 am
While rebuilding a set of cast iron Girlock calipers I used this section of a Holden service manual for the same Girlock caliper.
After scanning to make a copy to put into my VG service manual I thought I would post it here in case anyone else should need it.
Also details correct pad replacement. - Incorrect pad replacement eons ago may have been part of the cause of my incorrect pad wear.
Also it is useful to get a cheap 6 point socket and grind the open end down to use on the patch lock bolts so you don't round them off. - The bolts have short heads.
