IFS rear conversion - a few questions...
Posted: Sat May 14, 2005 11:50 pm
Ok I did the IFS rear conversion today all all has gone well except for 2 things..
1. the handbrake cable is now not long enough any more with the extra width and axle moved towards the rear - what is the work around for this?
2. I have a bad whine (sounds like tyre noise but isnt) from the rear - could it be bearings or something to do with the drums etc? The IFS rear housing, axles etc where a little rusty thats why I think it could be bearings? although I now get a shudder through the brake peddle as well which I never got before the conversion?
