This issue had been bugging me for some time and after posting on the forum and getting mixed opinions thought a parallel approach was the way to go. The issue is to do with a new pressure switch failing slowly and requiring more and more foot pressure on the brakes before the brake lights show - a situation that was becoming more dangerous as it continues.

Seems the bearings I got were the wrong ones and the correct ones are not available in the cheaper version. So $100 odd later I got the right bearings and they went in today. Used 'quick metal' on one of them again and the second one went on in about 1 hour. Did a 'super dumb' thing after the first one and forgot to put the brake drum on. I know, I know! Scares me when I do stupid things like that. It took a few seconds for the penny to drop when the pedal went to the floor and I pump...
