Rear Brake Shoe Spacers

There should be a rear brake shoe spacer for the Cortina/Lotus/Corsair MK1 GT ( 10/65>) , all Cortina MK2 and EnFos of that era that incorp. the auto. adj. wheel for the b/shoes. Without it the handbrake comes out too far even after tightening the H/brake cable also the lever won't turn the auto. adj. wheel properly. Sometimes these spacers were not reinstalled after replacing the shoes.

P/N: DORY-2028A for the Cortina MK2. and P/N: 2925E-2K466A for the
Cortina/Lotus/Corsair (10/65>) which is not listed in the parts book.

I've reproduced spacers from the original part if anyone has them missing.

English Ford Neoprene Support Straps

Reproduced neoprene support straps for English Ford exhaust systems and rear axle housing handbrake cables are now available in the parts section.
They are 1/4" neoprene re-inforced with 4 sheets of heavy duty cloth much more durable than OEM straps.
Original EnFo straps were 1/4" rubber re-inforced matting which would weaken and tear after a couple of years.
These can be purchased in straps only or with original attached hardware using screw and lock nuts instead of rivets. Items with attached hardware are sold on exchange only.
