i managed to remove the drum,in removing most of the oil in the transfer case poured out so i'm guessing the oil seal is the problem,hopefully il be able to find one,not a lot of shops sell series parts in my country these days.thanks:)
i've backed off the adjuster so the drum spins free,the handbrake itself was not holding on a steep incline even when i tried adjusting,hoping to pull it out tomorrow morning,the drum itself is not hot just the smoking.Thanks for the replies :))
hi,i have a 79 series 3 lwb and when i run it the handbrake drum seems to be smoking and i can smell oil,has anyone had an issue like this,any help or info is welcome thanks :)
