Si failed its not one being the handbrake, how do I get the heat shields off to get at the adjuster? Look like the fittings are under the carpet

Also rear ARB bracket snapped, do I need the ARB on for an MOT? (edit) found some new old stock brackets but if there not here in time will it pass with the ARB missing?

Couldn't get the drums off can I get them off with a hub puller or do I need to undo the 4 bolts for the stub axel (there rounded off and rusty)

Got some NOS arb brackets but one side the but is rounded off :-(



Thanks for your help I'll try get the drums off again

Drums are easy to get off, just undo the hub nut, and it will pull off with a bit of persuasion. If not, tap it with a rubber mallet or something to losen up the shoes slightly, it'll come off :)

It was the bearing wouldt slip off to let the drum off with lots of gentle persuasion followed by hammer
couldn't even get the other side hub but off,

Good news is I got the ARB back on with fresh brackets

Going to book it In for the handbrake and retest, thank you all for your help I nearly traded it in for a Ka :-/ I do miss a pushrod I also miss my Volvo turbo, the zetecs power band is so smooth I miss the kick in the bum of a turbo when it comes on boost :P

Even with the handbrake off, if the inside of the drum is heavily worn there is a lip on the outer edge that the shoes just will not go over!

Why not touch the 4 bolts on the back Sam?

Took it to the garage in the end all sorted £125 down inc the re test and a bit of extra welding they found
