    Tom & Purdy - Brake adjustment

    I use your method for adjusting the front brakes ( it is quite easy to remove the pin from the brake rod clevice) but I can't remove the pin from the rear clevice rods.

    Light switch rod - rattles to distraction

    When I attach the light switch spider, spider spring and spider retainer on to the light switch rod, the horn button/light switch handle is flush with the top of the steering wheel. But when I attach the light switch body and bail, it pushes the light switch rod up so that the horn button/light...

    Take a head nut and cut it lenght-wise with a hack saw. Cut it thru to the center, screw it on the stud then take your vice grips and clamp them tightly on the nut, make sure the slot in the nut is not against the jaws .
