[Rovernet] Rovernet Digest, Vol 85, Issue 8

Many master cylinders have a tiny adjustable screw on the input pushrod.
Something may have changed dimensionally on either component, master or
servo, while they were out or being rebuilt. You may find an adjusting
protocol in the shop manual...or not, but it sounds like the screw needs
shortening because the brakes are getting too tight so quickly. After
making an adjustment I recommend driving the car VERY carefully for the
first little while and checking the rotors for excessive heat, possibly
requiring additional loosening.

*Thank you for your enquiry for our parts and services. We offer the
highest-quality spare parts for the vintage Land -Rover. Our staff is
minuscule while the demand for rare and “unobtainable” parts for early
Land-Rovers is relentless. While your concern is important to us, our
ability to respond to each and every enquiry may be limited and stocks of
many items are critically low.. We are primarily a restoration-based
enterprise but when we have a surplus of a given  item, we are able to
offer excess stocks to our dedicated clients. If your need is urgent, we
encourage you to contact us by phone, in person. Leaving a message is
rarely effective, so we recommend direct contact. With many buildings full
of parts, it is not always easy to locate obscure items, and the process is
often time consuming. We hope you understand. Please
provide complete details of your exact model including year, wheelbase,
which side drive, engine, Country of origin, etc. When giving part numbers,
please also state the catalogue number (typically found on the front
cover).  We appreciate your understanding and will do all we can to help.*
