According to the handbook, the amount of free play in the brake arms and servo is correct, any idea what the problem could be?   Jeff Martin Frequent User Username: jeff_r_1 Post Number: 398 Registered: 07-2018 Posted on Monday, 01 August, 2022 - 02:42:    I'm acting on knowledge on how the brake system on my Mark VI is, and it probably is similar when there is too much pedal travel. The rear brakes need nipping up to get rid of excessive shoe travel to the drum.   David Hughes Experienced User Username: wedcar Post Number: 134 Registered: 07-2004 Posted on Monday, 01 August, 2022 - 18:46:    Hello Mark https://rroc.org.au/wiki/index.php?title=Technical:Wraith The above link will direct you to the Wraith handbook, this is a pre-war car with not the same, however a similar braking system, there is a diagram plus explanation of adjustment. Trust that helps.
