psycholist Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) One solution is to drill and tap a hole in the bushing the pushrod threads through and fit a grub screw which you tighten against the pushrod to lock it in position - some Hope brakes have this feature IIRC, so it may be just a matter of buying different bushing with this already done... The other option is to unscrew the pushrod and put a drop of thread locking compound on the threads (Loctite do a pile of different ones - get something rated for hand tool removal - http://www.loctiteproducts.com/products/de...48&plid=153 ), reassemble the pushrod in the correct position, leave it set for a few hours and then it should be locked in position.
