Jesus! What a Nightmare!

Just replaced the handbrake cable on my own today! Took me 3 hours to do! Is this taking the **** or what?

From start to finish, never-ending problems, parts seized, mucky hands and bruised knuckles!

Just thought i'd let everyone know a bit of advice if you happen to be replacing your brake cable,

• Apply generous amounts of lubricating oil thru the Cable's casing, this will allow it to move freely in the casing and prolong the life of the cable. Plus it stops the cable scuffing inside it's casing..

Now it's done, i'm gonna have myself a Big steak and chips to reward my hard work...

.. excuse me waiter? Steak and Chips please!

Is adrenaline brown?

Yum ... a huge rare T-Bone with lots of chips, peas and lashings of tomato ketchup.

Oh, next time wear some disposable gloves. Also helps if you spray some Plus Gas* over the bits you need to undo ...

* WD-40, Duck Oil etc. is okay I suppose but I haven't found anything yet that beats the genuine Plus Gas

If your brakes have been dragging, save up for some new wheel bearings - they seem to die from the heat![:0]
