Jul 5, 2020 at 21:29 | comment | added | Edward | @SolarMike: that's fine if I were going to replace the rotor (as I am intending in this case) but not when all I want to do is check the condition of the parking brake shoes. The gist of the question is how to avoid having to resort to that kind of destructive diassembly. | |
Jul 5, 2020 at 21:27 | comment | added | Solar Mike | I found an “easy” way to remove the rotor was to stitch drill it and split it with a chisel or weaken it with a grinder and split it. Much less likely to damage the bearings etc. | |
