360 Rear brake re-assembly
Posted: 14 Nov 2011 02:16 am
I'm finally putting my rear end back together after cleaing up and spraying. Am unsure on a couple of points that those with assembled cars or knowledge could help with.
Brakes pipes on the right hand side : Which way round do they go into the wheel cylinder? feed in top, or feed in bottom? I thinking feed in bottom would help flush through air with the bleed screw on the left wheel. A picture of the short pipe would be helpful too, not sure what shape it needs to be to clear the CV shaft.
Self adjusters: Just discovered these are handed with opposite thread types, and didn't label them on dissassembly. Which way round do these go? The best guess I have from an unclear picture in the manual is that the flat ledge faces downwards on the outside of the ratchet screw nut. Or alternatively the one with the left handed thead goes on the left.
