    rear caliper rebuild

    hey guys
    i'm rebuilding my rear calipers right.
    now the manual shows that the handbrake cam that actuates the handbrake just lifts out.
    but mine wont
    i mean its nice and free now after much shagging around but wont lift out.
    i want to put all new seals in it and grease it all up so its good for ages.
    anyone else done one of these before?

    You need to remove the rod the cam actuates (#10) to get the cam out. Unfortunately everything else needs to come out as well...

    There is a thread on here somewhere that goes over everything.
