hello all :thumbs:

any one got an idea whats involved with fitting new rear discs? i know that the hand break pads run inside the alloy bell - i guess what i am asking is how easy are they to fit

thanks

Not as easy as fronts if the thing is friggin stuck to the handbrake shoes or whatever they are

mine were a pig

I can change my fronts in 30 mins but my rears drove me bonkers

Not too hard to change if you wind in the hand brake adjustment to get the shoes away from the drum.
Done by removing wheel then looking through a wheel bolt hole at about 2-3 o'clock. Will see a slotted adjustment wheel, poke flat bladed screwdriver through the hole and wind the wheel so the shoes come away from the drum. Then the disc should come off easily..:thumbs:
