Ive got to do my rear discs and pads, now im guessing the car is still on its stock rear shoes as well whilst im doing the disc's should i do the shoes out of course??

The car is on 70 thousand the hand brake works fine but in my head if im doing the discs i might as well do the shoes?

Also do i need the brake shoe spring kit ive seen knocking around to replace springs etc?

thanks
Neil

I'd be inclined to check the handbrake shoes. A rub with some emery paper or similar will be all you need in most cases.

Neil, don't forget to back the handbrake shoes off before trying to pull off the rear discs sir... Last thing you need to do is pull the pins through the back plates

cheers guys, Craig yeah done that years ago on a ML oops

I read that if you release epb with engine on then turn off car the discs can be removed without need to wind back handbrake shoes? Present :2008 TDV8 HSE
