rear drum/disk on leggy, handbrake problem
Hi all,
My dad has a legacy 2.5Ltr 4 cam auto ,r reg, he's got a problem with the handbrake not holding. We have adjusted the cable upto the max at the lever end,still wont hold, can you adjust the shoes on the rear drum??? It's a drum/disc config so the rear shoes are for the handbrake only, I presume!!
Cheers
Lea

if you look at the back of the "drum" from under the car (suitably supported, etc.!!) - you will see a little grommet about 1" long...........prise out and behind it is a cog to adjust the h/brake shoes, tighten until they just grip the wheel and then back-off a turn.......................
