The rear brake on my 1980 CR is getting pretty sketchy. Yesterday durring a moto i heard it chattering in some off camber turns where i had to brake slide around. The problem is that the backing plate wobbles so much that the pads cock i think. I assume the bushings are worn out which causes the slop. My options are to hunt down another CR backing plate, pay to much, and hope its tight. Or to just swap over to a 80-82 YZ125 wheel and brake, make it fit and enjoy simpleness and ease of replacement parts. Any suggestions would be apprceated.
