Many thanks for the information folks. My Ruby is an early type which had been converted at the rear end to semi-girling in a previous life but with the original lozenge front brakes, which were fitted to the the last of the early Ruby’s.
I am now converting the the front to semi-girling to match the rears.
My brother has a big seven and a a late ruby based special and he had sent me details of his set up and a photo of all the parts which replicates exactly what John has detailed.
Thanks for your explanation John it all makes sense now as the backplates on my rear brakes and all the parts I have for the fronts have no slotted bolt holes or oval holes for the actuator to allow any movement to equalise the brake loading.
Cheers Denis S
