What have you done today with your Austin Seven

I’m not completely sure but I believe that you can use 1” shoes with 1 1/4” drums but not the other way round.  Others may correct me.

The Seven Workshop sells 1 1/4” shoes.  Great quality but may be a bit more than you wish to pay?

Cheers

Howard

Well I guess that helps with brake bias! I suppose I'd better pull the front hubs off before I do anything else. I have a spare d type axle here, but with the greater offset shoes. Better brakes on the back is a definite no-no. Don't ask me how I know!

And you are correct Howard. I don't want to invest any more time or cash into this than absolutely necessary.  Is it my Scottish ancestry, my Yorkshire birthplace or my seven ownership that makes me so parsimonious?
