What size hub nut

After some help please fella's,

I have a broken spring on the hand brake (off side) so need to get the hub off, what size is the nut and torque setting.
rear disc/drum was squealing, I have backed the shoes off and got the retain spring out.

I did read on another thread somewhere it was 38 mm? And set at 420lbs, that's flippin tight Big Cry is this correct? If it dont work.......burn it!

If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF.

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

Why do you need to remove the hub nut? rear disc is held in place by an allen screw in the disc face. This will release the disc/drum and give access to the springs and handbrake cable assembly at the top of the hub. .

The backplate is a solid round unit that bolts/fixes in such a way you need to remove lots to fit WD!

^^^ for fixing/sorting the holes ( I just used some washers)

This for removing/refitting backplates/splashguards without removing hub

A lot of peoples do this with the new ones, due to the hassle Whistle .
