Hi list,

I am looking to get some input on my brakes for a 1984
Westy:

I have replaced front calipers, rear slave cylinders,
installed new
pads in the front and left the old shoes in the back
(plenty of meat
on them). I have also replaced the master cylinder and
reservoir. I
have checked whether the servo holds vacuum-yes it
does, as well as
the line into the engine bay. have replaced one way
valve as well.
The rear adjustment nut is turned until the wheel does
not spin
freely anymore, off the ground, then backed off. I
have done this
multiple times also.
