yeah that'll be right. i broke those tiny little start clip things and the whole handbrake and rear brakes didnt work, supprizing what 12p's worth of parts can stop working. | |

sounds about right, you shouldnt depress the brake pedal with the drums of though, thats how cylinders split. | |

u havent put them back together properly if they are constantly enguaged. push the pistons in then put it back together. sounds like the self adjusting mechanism isnt put back right. | |
