right, i had the back right brake cylinder leak.

so i replaced that and the metal pipe coming out the back.

ive bled all 4 wheels and it works, but the brake pedal seems to go in alot further than before. what could i do?

also the handbrake comes all the way up now, it was fine before. could yanking the handbrake cable make it loosen? cos i did this to check id put the spring on correct.

or could the brake bias spring have been adjusted (i was pushing at this to tighten the nut for the brake pipe.

i tried adjusting the handbrake cable from above the rear axle but it didnt seem to do much.

what does the adjuster strut in the hub do? i mucked around with this trying to get it back on aswell, would that affect it.

thanks in advance for the advice guys:thumbs:
