Interestingly, the new "concentric" cotter shown below has its thread on the centre line of the full diameter.
I assume this is a design Y cotter from the first post, which is the form of some new stock in our spares ?
The final picture showing a design Y cotter in a new brake lever would suggest the new lever could have the cotter hole a fraction low. Some new levers we have taken into spares tock recently are also a very loose fit on the cam shaft.
In comparison to the original Longbridge build parts there are a number of possible error points- the cam shafdt cotter recess, the lever cotter hole position, cam shaft hole diameter in the lever the incorrect cotter form.
