If your needing help with brakes on a cub....I would hope that ANY A&P could help you.

Sure, any A&P could help me...but I'm looking for an A&P that does Cub work as this is an opportunity to develop a long-term relationship for other repairs.

If a disk brake yea, but most guys don't have a clue if they are expander tubes, even guys who have been flying them for years.

That would be Jon Brown in Winter Haven. If he isn't close enough for you, at least he may be able to point you in the right direction.

I love expander tubes, I'm my mechanic. Before you throw them out send them to me.

I must say, in 30 years of working on cubs,(in Alaska) it has been at least 25 years since I have had to deal with 4" wheels and or expander tube brakes. Also the Goodyear floating disc type brakes have become extinct. McCauley brakes are no more, along with the Taylorcraft cable/drum type POS brakes. Not to say Cleveland's don't have their issues, but they work the best in the North Country. So if I had any old expander type brakes laying around Glenn, I would gladly send them your way...
