thanks every 1, i forgot to add that the shoes and handbrake cable were new about 3 wks ago. ive took both hubs off, checked the self adusters etc, put it all back together, spun both wheels wen off the ground, no grinding now (was ever so slight b4, every 3/4 of a turn a slight rubbing noise could be heard) both wheel bearings are fine. | |

the brake compensators dont change if u lower a 1.2, theyre fixed bias. | |

Hi, i lowered my 1.2 8v -40mm on FK suspension kit. The rear brake drums get pretty hot (discoloured the paint on drivers side) took hubs off, shoes were rubbin ever so slightly, so i adusted them, now theres no rubbing what so ever, but the drums still get warm (i drove 1 mile,on fairly twisty roads, then i checked the drums and they were pretty warm) |
