after rejoicing that I'd saved a fortune by refurbing my own rear calipers I eventually gave up trying to adjust my knackered handbrake cables and have ordered some new ones

has anyone done this recently and have any top tips?

it looks like another :evil: fun job :evil:

heres a nice picture of my finished right caliper complete with new rubber seals and a working bleed nipple :D

It's not to bad I found the worst bit was buggering around down the side of the drivers seat. Id suggest taking the seat out, it will make it much easier.

thanks caprixpack

good advice, I ended up removing the seat when I changed the handbrake lever recently
