HA.....As was done to mine.... Fitted new cables etc;...... OMG......Twisted sooooo much I had to get them to fit another set... My hand brake was so bad.... Utterly useless..... I do have new shoes on the rear..... Fitted my compensator last week.... I have had to adjust the nut on the hand brake from 25cm..(is that right..) to about 15cm.... No adjustment of the shoes and my hand brake is now only 2 clicks...DO NOT DELAY..... DO IT TODAY ... Is my motto...
