Had to have rear brakes replaced yesterday, worked carried out was:
NS & OS Brake Shoes,
NS & OS Drums,
OS Cylinder
OS Handbrake Cable,
This was all due to a ceased and incorrectly adjusted handbrake cable caused the rear brake to fail.
£285.00 (2 weeks after forking out £950.00 for damaged engine from a snapped timing belt).
anyhow, i was adviced by the bloke who did the brakes that my OS front tyre is worn below legal limit and that the track rod end has had it (would that be the cause for balding tyre?)
also, NS and OS rear brake hose/pipe corosion.
Are these parts a DIY job or am i gonna have to stump up more cash? MOT is in 3 weeks would like to get it sorted without paying out more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more.
