Ok People i need all your help here !

Basically heres the story,

i had a MOT and failed lol , it failed on ball joints hand brake cable, so what i did was go and buy a handbrake cable (both side) and 2x ball joints

So i arranged a date with my mate mike we started to tackle the ball joints and did them a piece of piss NO PROBLEM ,

Then ws the hard part ! the handbrake cable we started to tackle the driver side, and the drums was literally welded onto the base and pads ! we finally got them of after half hour of whacking and banging ! lol ... we got the handbrake done and tightened it up ... we ut the wheels on and started up the motor now i got no brakes ? but my handbrak works :S ????

any ideas please
