Gday guys, im having a drama fitting my new drum brakes for my FC
I have had the drums machined, all the wheel cylinders re sleeved,new shoes bonded and new lines and master cylinder.
I have done 3 corners successfully but the rear passenger side is causing me grief.
I cant get the shoes to compress enough to fit drum on.
There is no fluid yet so its not that, the shoes wont lock into the slots on either side of the wheel cylinder,the rod with the spring on it wont let shoes close enough.
Any ideas.
Cheers
Brad
Just had the same thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago.
It turned out that the rear park brake cable was seized and not releasing all the way.

Have u adjusted the esentric ?
Yes i have Peter, i think it might be something to do with handbrake
Im spending the day in the shed tommorow so ill tackle it again then.
Cheers and happy easter
I no longer have a manual.
Does anyone know of a good site i can download sections of the workshop manual to print?
Cheers
Email sent with pdf of brakes section hope this helps. It is 9mb so hopefully your sever can handle. If not let me know and I will split.
Regards Wayne
Cheers Wayne ill download it anyway but ive just finished for the day out there.
The handbrake cable needs replacing and ive tried bleeding the new brakes up but only getting fluid to drivers front,so im taking all the hard lines out now and replacing them with new ones ::)
Will it never end ho hum
