IVA brake balance label
Does anyone offer a ready made IVA brake balance 'Do not adjust...' label or do I have to make my own. CBS do the Dot fluid label but not
the brake balance on as far as I can see. TIA

I thought you weren't allowed to have the adjuster connected and the nut had to be permantly fixed off. Making a sticker irrelevant?

Can now be adjustable, but locked. The sticker makes it safe!!!!!

I failed IVA on this - so I just printed one out and sellotaped it under the dash near the pedal. Thank god I did or I'd be in a hedge on fire
by now.
The wording I used was: "Adjusting front/rear brake bias may invalidate approval and breach Construction and Use requirements."

Some one was making them a while ago as I bought one, but think it was just a 1 off batch.

That's good to know, one of my jobs in a few months.

I printed one from google images, then laminated it, and stuck it on to my pedal box cover (with superglue) - This seemed fine for Mr IVA.

What is the approved method of locking the bias bar?

Lockwire is given in the manual as an example, otherwise it just "must be locked". Used to be roll pins for IVA but wire is almost
certainly easier.
I drilled the nuts and used lockwire, no problems.

Thanks for the CBS link loggyboy, shown as new on the website but could not find it in my printed catalogue. I was on the point of calling them to
suggest they make such a thing but obviously someone got there before me. Problem solved!
