New Brakes for EK
Posted: Fri Apr 11, 2014 5:20 pm
Hello,
I bought an EK a few weeks ago to sit beside my HT, so only new here. I took it to exhaust place to fix the exhaust and asked if he could look at my brakes. My knowledge for brakes goes to adjusting them only. He said they're stuffed. New cylinders, shoes, drums, etc. Fluid leaked everywhere for a long time. Apparently, everything except drums can be purchased new. Can anyone tell me where I can get brake drums from? Is it easy to convert to something else. I'm not fussed with having disc brakes etc but is that what I need to do? Is there somewhere in Melbourne I can take it too? I am in S.E.
Please help.
