It's been quite some time since I've been on here, in fact a quick search suggests nearly 2.5 years, but I'd appreciate some advice on a braking problem.
Vehicle is a 1984 Ford Transit AutoSleeper pop top (featured in the owners vehicles section some time back). It's been sat for a while due to an intermittent and irritating brake problem I can't trace, but I'd like to get it back on the road for festivals this summer. Most of the time *but not always* when you brake you get a considerable judder/pulsing through the brake pedal. I think the fact that occasionally it doesn't do it is somehow important to finding the problem.
So far it's had the fluid flushed through, and up front new discs, new calipers, new pads. On the rear it's had new shoes, new hub seals, new cylinders, rear drums were skimmed (the engineering shop said they couldn't fault them in the first place so it was a very light skim), then rear drums were replaced with new old stock I found on the internet.
Nothing so far has worked and I'm all out of ideas. As it's not quite every time I press the pedal I can't believe it would be discs or drums, especially as they've all been replace to no avail.
Any suggestions please? It's getting to the stage I'd happily take it to a more professional garage but with no idea of where the issue is I don't like the idea of giving them a blank cheque.
Have a pic.
