defender 90 - stock brakes Although with new stainless pistons , new disks , new pads , new hoses , new cupronickle lines and new master cylinder.....
It has new suspension - and bushes all round, all TREs are new and swivels have been rebuild and adjusted using a set of scales.
pulls left under hard braking and it annoys me - its not terrible but noticable. Passed an mot as is but i want to sort it while im in there changing the servo.
things i know.
when the brakes are off the disks all the pistons move freely and fairly equally when the brake pedal is pushed
The brakes work damned well and stand it on its nose if i hold the steering wheel right.
Things im wondering -
will an imbalance across the adjustment of the rear drums cause it to pull to one side - although both are adjusted to the the point of scuffing it could be an out of round drum grabbing or something. - again new drums , shoes , springs , and slaves - all proper no blue box or equivalent.
ive had a good going over the suspension to check for loose **** but anything in particular to pay specific attention to that could cause my pull under braking?
