Hi, been having brake issues as discussed on a thread some time back. Basically there was no adjustment left and I am using about an inch or more of washers to get the brakes to work. I had taken the left side off back then and found the discs were about new but still no adjustment. Talked to the cih parts guy and he indicated that the balls in the brake actuator plate assembly can wear down or maybe the plates can wallow out. He also suggested going from the 7/8" balls to one inchers.
Finally got to pull the right side last night (which also had to have about an inch worth of washers to make them work) and found about new disks and the actuating plates were almost touching. Calipered the balls and they were right on 7/8". They fit the holes about perfect but sat in fairly deep. Without replacing the actuator plate assembly which is probably expensive, I just wondering what anyone thinks about putting in bigger balls? Next time I get down to the parts dept I will try some 1 inchers he said he had in stock. thanks.
