Aluminium front backplate problems
#7
When we built the Raid Austins back in 1981 our preferred choice of front wheel cylinders were side valve Morris Minors not the later OHV models. The photo shows how simple the installation was, for safety we machined our own steering arms after finding cracks in the original Arms.
Perhaps these Lockeed alloy cylinders are no longer available?
To save weight as a handbrake was not a requirement on racing, cars at the rear we used a standard bolt on Ruby backing plate with a Fiat double ended cylinder.
