Default Re: Brake fades if hot

Guten Abend Richard & Dave,

yes, the way that Richard ("Dick"?) writes is the way I drive. But as written, the otherwise if cold good deceleration values drop a lot very quickly because the heat is dissipated too poorly.

Dave, in the rear I have mounted the bonded pads that Don Snyder III offers. In front, a specially made and grinded of the measure to the drum size, relatively soft brake pads are glued, which are used for industrial machines; they have an increased coefficient of friction.

btw.: Thanks at all for the helpin' hints!
