uncleaud Posted October 20, 2022 Report Posted October 20, 2022 Putting the front brakes on my 47. Took the backing plates off, sandblasted and painted. New shoes, new wheel cylinders and new lines. While I was putting the shoes in place I noticed that the cam on the minor adjust bolt wasn't turning with the bolt on the back. Can it be disassembled and reattached or do I need to spot weld? Quote
plymouthcranbrook Posted October 21, 2022 Report Posted October 21, 2022 Well I had the same problem with one side on the rear on my 52 Plymouth. I looked at it and thought, what the hell. I took my torch(all I have) and carefully and gently welded the cam to the bolt. I let it cool and it worked fine. That was probably 10 years ago. Quote
Solution uncleaud Posted October 21, 2022 Author Solution Report Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) yep...that worked. Sometime a big hammer and mig welder are your most important tools.? Edited October 22, 2022 by uncleaud spelling 1 Quote
