There is play at the top of the new shoes where they meet the piston, it's as if the strut is too long. However I reckon it's more likely the recess the strut fits into is not deep enough!
I tried sanding down some of the friction material, but it didn't make a difference and I don't want to go too far as they'll end up thinner than the old shoes!
I've refitted the old ones for now, but I have one side new and one side old so would like to get this sorted.
There is no adjuster to wind in and let the shoes contract, unfortunatley. I can't see what else could be wrong.
Thanks for any input.
