In rebuilding my 1952 M100, I had to free-up the brake handle from years of rust. Now it will not lock automatically - I have tomanually push the cam into a notch to hold it. Does anyone have info on the spring that used to make this automatic? Thanks in advance. dwm

You've probably got this figured out by now. I had the same problem,had to grind out the rivet and replace an old ,worn, and rusty spring with a new one.Works great now ,good luck

Thanks for the tip. Actually, I lucked out and got by with a thorough cleaning and reassembly of the original parts. Hope that you are enjoying this GREAT site. Happy New Year.
