Handbrake SSC

[Simon240]

Hi,

I'm trying to obtain a modified h/brake compensator but I am unsure what is meant by sending a personal message - help!!

Thanks,

Simon

Hi Simon.
It means send me a PM but seeing that you have posted here I will now send you one stating how to obtain a SSC so look in your private messages

I know this has probably been done before, but here is a picture of the compensator that I have just removed from my car (51-plate) alongside the Arctic replacement one, showing that the old one had stretched by some 13mm. New one is now installed and working well. Thank you.

Old one will be in the post to you in the next few days.

This post by David should be kept as a sticky
It's the picture which explains why many many members can't or won't ever
Achieve a decent working handbrake

Had a bit of a fight with the carpet but all was well in the end, with the SS compensator in place. Took a couple of hours.

I will, however need to get a set of clips for the carpet kickers as I can't get any of the kickers to slide back in place.

Thanks again Arctic

Thanks Arctic for the compensator. Managed to finish it Sunday morning was quite straight forward once I'd got the carpet up. The old compensator was about 14mm longer.

Handbrake still not working brilliantly as I think the new shoes need to bed in a bit more and I may need to adjust at the wheels again. I'll give it a few days and see how it goes.

Many thanks to Artic for supplying the modified HC. Hard graft fitting on your own, especially in the weather we're having, but it's done now, cheers
