Wheel Brake Chatter

Postby Xenos29DN » Fri Jan 06, 2012 11:25 am

Hi,

I have the standard Azusa wheel and brake with the machined drum. I am at a loss on how to fix chatter or grabbing when I apply brake. Any suggestions?

Have you checked to make sure the backing plates for the brake assembly is prefectly perpendicular to the axle? It is only one little tab that holds it and can easily be bent forward or backward making it out of alignment.
