| Re: Rear Brake Shoes Try driving off with your handbrake on, if it move easy theres a problem, if you take foot off the gas and it does not stop rolling theres defo a problem . Best to go to kwik fit and get them to check em, doubt they will have the shoes but will free everything up for you whilst they try and check......

| Re: Rear Brake Shoes Owenmall, I got news for you, there is nothing even remotely like Quickfit in Spain, we have just had a tyre shop open up, we are still waiting for an exhaust shop. Its all take it to the garage & lose the vehicle for a week, nothing takes less than a week here. | ||||||||

| Re: Rear Brake Shoes   simply scotch wheels, remove your wheel , let hand break off, remove screw from break drum, pull the drum off , examine the shoes, easy  no excuses you have the nice sunny weather unlike us , roll your sleaves up and get stuck in  relining your breaks in sunny spain , done mine yesterday wearing my wolly hat and scarf | ||||||||
