Hi Kevin,

Did you take any pictures of the operation? I just looked at the pictures I posted in your thread from my repair on the brake cilinder and there is no place to put the packing on the backing plate. Do you put it in the groove of the brake drum then?

Cheers,

hi, yes in the grove on the brake drum. I would say after a few miles recheck the brake drum bearing tightness of the retaining nut as per the manual, as the new seal beds in. I would recommend fitting a seal as per design, leaving it out is not an option even on road driving avoiding mud and water.

nice to meet you at Beltring.

kevin.
