hi guys,
*** while i have my car up on all fours how easy is it to access the gearbox oil and what part do i need to remove bolts. i will try and search but i seem to have no luck with finding guides lately ***
after successfully changing discs, pads and re-threading the hole with the helicoil kit, i am now faced with another problem, which is a broken nipple on the rear drum. what is the best option to sort this out? removing the drum only to open up another can of worms. no doubt this will consist of changing rear shoes, cylinder & brake drums. and with the corrosion ive already witnessed it looks like its going to be a full overhaul
any suggestions? the only reason this happened was to drain the brake fluid and bleed the brakes after the fronts were done but it looks like its going to cost me now! its a good learning curve but a bloody headache at the same time.
is it easier to change the brake cylinder rather than drill out the existing broken nipple???
ive seen a pagid kit from europarts along with brake drums for £94 should i just buy the whole lot and change accordingly???
cheers
