proper job

[Chris_786]

Had the day off uni and got bored, so did what everyone on here does when they have a few hours to kill...

comments welcome folks =]

 

[Whiteley]

Should have driven the thing instead. Give it a day or so before it looks as it did before!

 

[Chris_786]

Ha yeah plan was to paint the drums and calipers though hence reason for the big anal clean but rain stopped play =[

 

[Christopher]

All that effort and no tyre gel.

Looks great

 

[B5 BDJ]

good effort mate, looks very good. desperately need to do mine, but with it being winter i cant be bothered

 

[paul]

[adamlewis01]

Good work with the cleaning, not so good work with the sandles :dead: trainers or pumps FTW (in this weather too!)

 

[Timmay]

big anal clean

Uhm...

 

[guysy]

Good job, Is there any way you can tighten up the rear drums brake shoes, whilst the rear drum is off? So the handbreak works better?

I think the exhaust needs to come out to do it

 

[Chris_786]

Yes mate, take the drums off, and you can see the pistons that push the shoe's into the drum? (see the pic)
there is a little ring there that will click over (spinning it towards you)
just rotate that and keep offering the drum up untill it's a tight fit.
then attatch drum and your away.

Is there no guide for this? as i could do a more detailed one if needs be...


Oh and no by big anal clean i did not mean i went for a colonic irrigation. Lol

 

[Ali]

Clean!

 

[DebV6]

Nice job! I done mine 2 weeks ago while the wheels were off to paint the calipers. They don't stay clean for long though

Cheers for the explination mate. Seems fairly easy. I might have a crack at it some time.

And yeah a guide would be very helpfull to make sure everything is done right. I dont think there is one already.

 

[Pettsi]

Good effort. Paul - are you bashing one out?

 

[clio_luke]

I'll jump on the guide as soon as i have another day off, it's fairly easy to do, but will do a step by step for you all =]

Cheers for your comments all, nice to see your car clean even if it does get filthy the second you pull off the drive lol

[Ian_182]
