I am looking at my spare Girling hub assembly in the warm on my kitchen table and can see the logic of cutting the adjuster (slotted) end of the shoe horizontal to make it slide as required to find it's centre position. However, this leaves only one end of the shoe and adjuster touching. Will this not lead to early wear in the shoe stopping the very thing trying to be accomplished?. Would it not be better to elongate the existing slot (keeping the existing angle) enabling the shoe to slide as required plus biasing the shoe towards to the actuator end as at present. Or am I 'way off track' as usual?
