Technical Handbrake replacement

[h2ypr]

Have done most of the replacement however, i seem to have lost the "bolts" that connect the cable to the lever on the brake drums... can i just use a normal bolt and nut?

Thems not bolts, thems clevis pins. If you have lost them make sure you use a nyloc nut and don't tighten fully. They need to swivel. I'd also put washers on, and a dod of grease.

that is very true. but u were just trying to see where my leak was coming from!

Managed to get it all done, with my mates help!!

Hardest bit was getting the wheel back on with the new cable. Handbrake is now fully working and VERY effective.

First time i've ever had a cinq with a working handbrake!!

Engine/gearbox mount to replace, with new wipers and wheels and then its ready for the MOT!
