RedM Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Not hard but fiddly. Mind you a garage attached to a trader on here has managed to not get one of mine right and something has come loose and is rattling around in the hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike_mcevoy Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Yep definitely fiddly, did mine last weekend and found that I needed three hands and triple jointed arms Got it done though and now have a working handbrake, mind you I did find I had to re-adjust them after a few days as they settled in.

merckx Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 If you're not mechanicallly/technically minded then I would get someone else to do them. But even saying that, you'll never learn if you don't try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 are they just like fitting normal drum shoes then with the upper and lower springs and mounting spring retainer push & turn jobbies? never done the sups yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranz Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 If you do it yourself make sure you photograph everything in situ before taking it apart. There's usually loads of bits that look similar, and getting them all located right can be a nightmare if you can't remember where they go!!
