Spent a pleasant day fitting the relined brake shoes. A short run to return the hub puller to my local indy. Now I have to readjust the brakes, the rears are a bit tight, and the fronts too easy.
That will be another day though.
As a matter of interest does any other old Morgan have this arrangement for the handbrake. It doesn't appear in any of the documentation I have (Original Morgan Instruction book and John Dowdeswell's Workshop Manual.

I ought to replace this piece as it was cracked. My local indy welded it, and ground it to shape.

This piece fits in the box on the slave cylinder, and is pulled out by the handbrake, pushing up two pegs which force up the shoes onto the drum.
I cannot find the piece on BHM parts list nor on Mervyn Rutters website.
