Hi all.

In making some notes regarding new caliper/pads install on my '81, I
re read "Note" on P 40.10 of Bentley.  "If brake hose bracket is
removed, clearance between wheel and hose must be checked when
reinstalled." It specifies 1".

I removed this bracket on each side. I don't see any issue in terms of
wheel clearance but on the driver side, the hose was quite close to
spring when wheel turned full to left.

Is this an issue? I adjusted bracket slightly to allow some clearance.
Was this incorrect and/or unneeded?

Here's the page with that part of my write up

Thanks for any clarifications or critiques. Want to make notes of what
I did as clear as possible.

Neil.
