[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 638656, member: 13110"] The shoulder, where the brake butt's up against the barrel, should be square as well. It looks tapered in the picture and it could of flared the rear of the brake if the brake was tightened down much with the brake as thin as it is. That would give you even less thread contact. I agree that the threads are way undersize as well. It barely rolled the top of the threads when it blew off so there was very little contact from the start. It doesn't look like it was the wrong thread pitch because you usually see threads with cuts across them when it's the wrong pitch. I can't imagine how sloppy it was threading the brake on and off. Someone got in a hurry and rather than fess up to the mistake they tried to patch it up. It sucks but can you imagine the crown you would have received if he would have cut it off and re-threaded it to try and make it right with work like that? [/QUOTE]
