Replace Rear left handbrake cable
Hi all, seem to be asking lots of questions these days
and getting really good help! So my latest question is, is any good guides on replacing the handbrake cable going to my back left wheel. I have the cable ordered and it has been delivered and it looks like a simple swap out. But just before I start is there anything I should watch for or just a guide to follow somewhere? Couldn't see anything on the forum or wiki.
Cheers

Extremely straightforward job really. Wheel & drum off, unlatch the cable from the shoe. Cable should push through ok. The grommet may be a tad tight but should work loose eventually. Would advise to do both sides at same time though.

Ya I wasn't really thinking when I just ordered one cable as I just saw the existing one was in bits. Thanks for the help though, will get cracking on that tonight maybe.
