brake shoes go under the discs !!

have u trie3d new pads mate that go under the rear discs lol or just adjust them up

yeh i have had that idea i was just going to put a loop in the wire and do it up with a bolt type thing i got from b&q but i was wondering if i cd get the right cables so that i wouldnt have to do this. Also im not sure if the mot people would like it aswell.

is the cable tight when you have the handbrake up?

if not a sugestion.... with handbrake down cut the cable and puls is so that its nearly tight. then use a cable joiner to join the to pieces.

dunno what the MOT people would think but it may work.:o

Dont worry mate its not to hard to do it just requires abit of thinking u2u me if you need any help i just cant get the handbrake to work properly.

not sure if this may be of any help...

I'm gona have the same problems when I get the next corsa & fit rear-discs to that!

well thats what i have as far as i know the problem is the adjuster bar is done up all the way and the handbrake only just comes on by pulling it up 10 clicks is this the same for every1 else with rear disks

normal corsa long piece and 1987 nova short piece

which handbrake cables have people used when converting their corsa to rear disks off of an astra gte?

cheers andy
