With Corey having seemingly disappeared from the face of the Earth (no reply to email, phone calls) I need my brake brackets modifying - the ones he made me don't quite fit the existing pads and don't fit the new ones at all. No one's fault - I had worn pads when he measured them up originally so that won't have helped.
So...
Do any machining gurus on here have any facilities to carve some aluminium from the brackets? I'm talking very small amounts - 2mm from the depth so the pads fit completely (to the edge) of the disk, and 5-6mm to allow me to use the £182 worth of pads that have stopped bits of paper fluttering about on my desk for the last few months (which don't fit on the inside of the wheel).
Thought it'd be worth a shot see if anyone wants to earn a bit of pocket money before I go round local machinists and they tell me 'Sure, in quantities of 10,000' before I show them 2 brackets and they laugh at me.
Determined to get the damn car finished this year, and have pretty much had summer off from sorting things out/spending money on it, so it's time to get my *** in gear.
Cheers
Paul
