id leave the hubs alone. the adjusters in the hubs are only really for wear adjustment for the normal brakes. fa esay to just do it on the back axle | |

Well thanks for the help. Bit of a bummer though, my mate has a 306 and he can adjust it in the comfort of his driving seat... | |

the handbrake adjuster is in the middle of the back axle. the self tightening things are in the hubs the only adjust up to a certain point. mainly when you have fitted new shoes. | |

Mine had a self adjusting cable :boggle: quote: One corner is fine, or rather do the back, you just need to get underneath it. [Edited on 05-03-2008 by Graham88] | |

my car isnt lowered, but would the whole car not need to be lifted as opposed to one corner like if you were changing tyres? | |
