Does anybody know of a wrecked 2-33 that is being parted out and may have a good wheel assembly? Last summer I had the brake assembly out of our club's 2-33. The brake is a Cleveland item, and you can get new brake drums for it. I got a new drum from Wickes Aircraft Supply, and it was fairly cheap. Haven't installed it yet, though. Jim Beckman |

I guess it all comes down to the drum diameter. I have the sneaky suspicion that someone in the past bored them out way too big. If the drum has been machined over diameter, a brake specialist should be able to measure the drum and fit overthick linings on the shoes to match. (That may explain why you have "worn" shoes with plenty of wear lining left on them). Ian |
