Front brake actuator pin.

Parts are worn and pin is a bit short. Is there a trick to get better performance?

New pin, or weld on end and reshape, or add a shim. See https://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/product.htm?pid=977561&cat=41655

I have even found new pins to even be too short. They are the factory correct length, but wear or reproduction parts in other places that are the incorrect dimension result in the pin being too short. I end up using the "pills" on most cars.
