handbrake

Arrrgg:emps1: just spent two hours replacing my handbrake shoes, half hour actually changing the shoes, hour and a half looking for the bloody retaining pin.
Thing is, I think simply adjusting the shoes would have done as there were plenty of meat left,just got it into my head they were toast as I've had no real bite on the handbrake for a couple of months, and I've left the brake on accidently a few times as the warning light hasn't been working. Fixed the light so that's why I decided to do the shoes.
Ah well, lesson learnt.

Well, at least you've got some spares, nicely worn in.

I replaced mine with a disk one cos I was fed up with poncing about with it. I hate drum brakes:5bsmash:

Absolute doddle, took me longer to get the old one off. If I remember I bought it direct from xtreme engineering as there was a big fluctuation in price from different places
