James, Tough one to call this. Rear drums binding - you really have to do an inspection, check for moisture etc, out of round may be. "front right pads are flapping around and hitting the disc" - same for this one too, disc out of round? calliper mounting bolts loose? I'd be trying to figure out what's wrong with this one first, think about it as you've got 3 out 4 suss brakes and if the car is pulling left the remaining front brake is working the best out of the four.
Take is pretty easy until you sort this problem out as we like having you around. regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of James Morrison Sent: Monday, 6 May 2002 2:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: brakes hey guys, about 8 months ago i had 240k struts, discs and booster and single piston calipers (temporary) put into my 1600, and about 2 months ago i noticed the back right (stock drum) drum was binding quite a bit, the back left occaisionally, but worst yet the front right pads are flapping around and hitting the disc (i assume) and making my car sound like its falling apart. Do i just need a brake adjustment or is it something serious? also the brake pedal goes a bit spongy every now and then, but it still brakes fine (pulls left slightly).
