i remember doing brakes on a 51 windsor in 2001, my first collector car. i had the spring tool but like many of you i found it did not work well at all. i thought i still had it, but it is nowhere to be found today. vice grips to the rescue. i am still unsure how to get the most benefit from the adjusting tool i bought from keith. i saw his video on line, but it is very sketchy on using the tool.i think he has a better video but i do not know where to find it.perhaps he reads this and can point me in the right direction. the weak point on these brakes is if they do not touch a large portion of the drum then they are weak, like mine were. i do not have access to the miller tool. captden
