What springs the retainer springs or the return springs?

Yeah it is super embarrassing. Rosco how are you doing the sand trick? I've never heard of that before. I'm going to try a long hill today hopefully and see what that does.

All my rivets were good like I said the shoes were almost new.....

Yeah i know they aren't light. ... .I was just wondering since it have the bearing in it if they could be turned..... I think i might take the drums off my spare axle have those turned and then get new pads and swap them out. Then I'll have those drums to do the same thing if the rear starts...

I thought maybe it would go away after a bit but I have probably 100 miles on it now since I redid them and it's still doing it if not worse

The right front first then if I brake harder the left front the rears don't do it.

No gimp it's just the fronts.

Well then maybe my deuce won't fit period lol

I'll be there in my m35a2 bobber but I want to run more then green access roads. If you guys don't mind I might tag along with the cucv group.

In the one picture you can see I put a grease zerk in the top of the knuckle. I didn't pack my knuckles full of grease because I don't think it's needed other then to make a mess. This way I can put a few squirms from time to time to get the thrust washers and all should be good

So the front axle is done I just have to adjust the brakes. Then I'm going to run my remote reservior and bleed the system. I have to run the fuel tank vent line and tidy up a few more little things and I'm going for a test drive tomorrow. Wish me luck!!!!! I also got the new u bolt plates made...
