GMC - replacing the brakes.

[Jack]

Today - I am going in, to replace all of the brakes shoes and cycliners throughout the GMC - I may be sometime :confused:

 

Out.

Take a camera with you! So you can see what they should look like when you put them back together.

Or better still, a pint of Brandy and a Vallium sandwich.

Would do Rik but my good lady has the camera this weekend as she is dissecting horses feet - don't ask :confused:

Fascinating subject! No brakes no GMC, but no foot no horse, and after all the horse has been a military vehicle for a Looooooooong time.

Back breaking stuff doing all those wheelnuts, so be careful! (only 100 to get all the wheels off a WLF or M55.....)

So how did it go?

[Jack]

All done! Everything replaced but I do have a leaking cylinder though but it is brand new???

[Mark]

Change the seals then Jack get some from one of the ols cylinders that was good ?

What happened to your hydrovac ?

 

Have you got that sorted out yet ?

Not yet Rich - I wanted to get the brakes sorted first as I had one leaking cylinder so wanted to sort that then I can see if the oil level drops. So I replaced everything on all axles whilst I was there.

 

I have a feeling the Richard is right in the fact that oil from the air filter may of gone into the carb as that was hell of a rough washed out track but will know more once the brakes are done.
