rear axle
Been stripping down the rear axle . The large hub bearings are in excellent shape thank goodness. This is a solid piece of engineering. One oddity I've never seen before is: the brake shoes are a aluminium casting . The drums could do with a skim and the linings are worn thin . The hand brake mechanism on the CS8 is quite involved and I believe it will be effective .
The original copper brake pipes , I have mentioned they used only single flared ends . This is a weird idea but it must have been OK at the time.
