Mechanical brakes never leak and go bad from sitting...who canīt like them
Had one car come in with a real worn setup early this spring and owner was told everything was worn out and beyond repair...change to hydraulics...bla bla
Digging into the bottom drawer out came the small round boxes of mechanical brake "cheaters"...a set of oversize rollers and shims later the car was back on the road...a real back in the days fix...but it worked !
