Hello Again, the brake shoes are the original shoes but relined. The drums dont rubb on the braking surface they rubb on the outer edge of the shoes when you tighten up the drum. I used a proper hub puller to remove the drum.  the problem is almost as if the drum is going in to far. The problem I have is finding what is warn, is it the axle or is it else where. Thanks

Hello, i have recently fitted aa new set of brake shoes and brake cylinders, refitted the drums to the front with no problems, however when i fit the rears the drums are rubbing on the edge of the brake shoe, it appears that the drum is going on to far, which suggests to me that either the taper in the drum is warn or the taper on the half shaft is warn, has any body else had this problem, if so what is the fix do frazer make a shim. Thanks Howard

Frazer Forum / Frazer Manhatton 1949

« on: March 25, 2022, 01:53:04 PM »

Hello Guys, I have recently got a 1949 Frazer manhatton, which had stood indoors in a car collection for some time, sadly there were no keys for the car, does any body know where i might get some keys did that ever make a universal key for the frazer, or can i get a new ignition with keys from some where.

Many Thanks Howard
